Chano is a character in the story Tonweya and the Eagles in Lakota Indian tales. He is a Native American. I wrote this journal entry about Chano’s life during my fun summer class.
Today I was taught how to make bows and arrows for hunting and wars. I myself learned how to ride ponies bareback. The first pony I rode was so naughty, that I almost fell off! I was soon selected to attend Carlisle School. After a long time, I graduate with honors. Before I leave school, I am chosen to represent Native Americans at the Congress of Nations in an Exposition in Chicago. After I graduate from school, I enter government service. I spend the bigger part of my life in Indian schools. I spent some of my life at a boarding school. At that school, I met my wife. I soon became very well known for my activities. I became an actor for “The Silent Enemy.” During that time, I caught a cold that turned into pneumonia. I knew I’ve few more moments to live and I’ll die shortly.
