Excerpt from An Authentic and Comprehensive History of Buffalo, Vol. 1 Their social habits and moral character have been equally misrepresent ed, and misunderstood. Before they had became contaminated by their intercourse with Europeans, they might in many respects have served as patterns for our imitation.
