Native Americans
“I like a piece of land as my heart....My heart is I will not speak about the reservation you speak of. I wish to have a piece of land on the East side of the DeChutes River; that is all I have to say. I wish to choose this piece of ground that I speak of from the Columbia to the Blue Mountains, also my fishing place of Columbia DeChutes Falls. This all I have to say.” Chief Stockwhitley, Wasco Treaty Council, 1855
