Rising Wolf the White Blackfoot — James Willard Schultz

You ask me for the story of my life. My friend, it would fill many volumes, for I have lived a long life of great adventure. But I am glad You shall have the story. Let us set it forth in order. So I begin: I was born in Three Rivers Settlement, Province of Quebec, July 9, 1798. My father was Captain Hugh Monroe, of the English Army. My mother was Amelie de la Roche, daughter of a noble family of French emigres. Her father owned a fine mansion in Montreal, and the large estate in Three Rivers, where my father lived with her what time he was not with his regiment on some expedition."
