Reading edition
This Indian was one of the principal braves of the Otoe nation, and has since become a chief. The name Hah-che-kah-sug-hah was given to him on account of his deadly success in the war parties against the Osages. It signifies, the man who slays the Osages. Though distinguished for ferocity in battle, yet in private life he was one of the most joyous, pleasant fellows I ever met with.
