C. ? - OCONQ3TOTA, Oconostota, king of the Creek* and Cherokees, lord of thousands of square miles of territory, leader of 10, 000 warrior*, h&* been called *tbe chief who lived forever." Probably be cause no one knowi when he wea born or when he died. . In 1730 he wai one of a delegation of Indian chiefs who crossed the At lantic and visited King George IL of England. At that time he was already a grown men and a famous warrior., In 1809 -eighty years later? -he waa. still alive. For In a letter of that dste David Meigs, Cherokee Indian agent, writes that "greasy old Ooonoe tota" had Just visited him. The aged chief was therefore la all probability long past his hundredth' year when he Journeyed to Meigs's home. Incidentally, he had lived to ?Ink from king to outoast tramp. Oconostota was chosen king of the Cberokeee and of their Creek al lies In tl 88. He was a giant, of un believable bedUy strength, and with the courage of an angry wildcat. He ruled bis "nation" with a " tyrant's away that none dared dispute. France and England went to war, the French seeking to gain mastery of all North America. Oconostota threw his mighty Influence on the side of the English. Hut for the tactless bn? ality of certain British settlers he and his savage army would have proved valuable allies. But a party of fron tiersmen accused some of Ms braves pf stealing their horses. The In dians denied the charge? ^whether truthfully or not? and the colonists undertook to punish the theft by at? tacking one of Ocpnostota's villages. An Injury Avenged. This was enough to turn Ooonosfo la's friendship to hate. With 10,000 warriors he attaoked the two British forts of Loudon and Prince George, and at the same time sent a throng of scalping parties through the de fenseless settlements of North and 8outh Carolina. .The garrison of Fort Loudon was starved into surrender, while the Prince George commander and . many of his soldiers were slain. Ooonostota promised the two hundrelfl inmates of Fort Loudon a safe pas sage into Virginia. But during the first day of their rn^rch thither he turned loose his bloodthirsty savages upon them. The* only restraining ln fluenoe through all these days of hoy ror and death . was exercised by Oconostota'a lieutenant (or "vloe klng," as the colonists called him), Atakullakulla, a dwarfish, gentle chieftain, who again and ^agaln inter fered to aoften his king's barbarities. The British avenged tile murderous campaign of Oconostota by ravaging the whole Cherokee country with fire and sword. Nor Would they pause In the fierce work of vengeance until Atakullakulla begged for mercy -in be half of his luckless people. Ooonoe tota had learned his lesson. He henceforth loudly declared the British nation the greatest on earth and him self as Its truest friend. For a time he seemed to Include the American settlers In his loyalty to the British government For he al lowed pioneers to build homes upon his tribal land at Watauga. He even re ceived them kindly and leased ground to them. But In 1775 the settlers, now more numerous, demanded large tracts in Kentucky and elsewhere. Then Oconostota saw the danger and struggled to overcome It. To the Cherokee council that was discussing thequeotion of giving up- t^o land to the settlers he made an Impassioned speech, prophesying that the Indians would in time be swept from the earth if they let the white men continue to seise their hunting grounds. The council overruled his objections and made a treaty with the pioneers, sell ing them the desired la&d. When the treaty was signed Oconostota turned to Daniel Boone, who had been prime mover in the affair, and said: "Young man, we have let you take much l*nd from us. But I fear you will find that land hard to live in." His veiled threat was destined to be most amply fulfilled. Almost at onoe the Revolutionary war broke out. i Oconostota eagerly offered his serv ices to the British. With 2<fc600 braves at his back, he fell upon the frontier settlements, spreading havoc in his wake. But in the five years of border warfare that followed between his savages and the American militia Oconostota was again and agsir beaten. From King *e Tramp. { These constant defeats weakened | the old chiefs influence with the In dians. At last his people rose agfclnst him, deposed him from the rank of head chief, or king, and put a young er, more peaceful leader in his plaoe. Such a fall from power was too much for Oconostota's pride. He became an outcast, took to drink, and spent his declining years tramping ss a beggar through the country he had once ruled, keeping alive by benlng or stealing from the very settlers whom he had sought to destroy* When he could find any one to listen to him he would spend tours weeping and bewailing. Ms lost "kingdom." . And so? a forgotten, drunken vaga bond?he passed out of history.. Nope knows what at last befell him, nor when or how he died. (Oepyrlgtit.)
