From Claiborne's preface to the work: "As originally written, the narrative was almost literally in his [Dale's] own words. In the present memoir I have preserved his language in many parts, and faithfully expressed his opinions." The first passage discusses the cession of Indian lands in Alabama and Mississippi, especially those of the Choctaw Indians; Dale and George S. Gaines were commissioned to remove the Choctaws from their lands in 1831. In the second passage Claiborne compares Dale's appearance and mannerisms to those of the Indians he worked with, and he describes Dale's attitude toward them: "...he entertained a strong attachment for the Indians, extolled their courage, their love of country, their patience, their tenderness to their children, and their reverence for the dead." |
