DHW provides counsel to Wakara for peace.
Daniel H. Wells, Note for Wakara, n.d., May 1, 1850, Territorial Militia Records, Utah State Archives
I will say to you that the Mormons BisChief talk with the Great Spirit and he tells us what to do and we do as he says We have nothing against you you have been our friends ase [sic] yet and we think you always will be. We do not give you the powder and lead to make friend[s] for you are our friends without it. We give it to you because you need it to hunt with and because we love you and wish to do you good. If you should see some Mormons going through the country you [must?] not be afraid or displeased because they shall travel all about. We want to see the country and are going to look at it good Indians are not afraid of us but they will come to us when they see us and talk.
