When Denece was 4 or 5 she was very pretty. The Indian Chief from the Blackfoot
reservation took a liking to her. He
came a few times to try to trade for her. He tried to trade blankets for her,
then a horse, then his own son. Grandma
Baty got so worried when she saw him coming that she would hide Denece under a
big wash tub until he left.
(1937 Doyle and Denece Argyle)
