INTRODUCTORY I first met Geronimo in the summer of 1904 when I acted for him as interpreter of English into Spanish and vice versa in selling a war bonnet After that he always had a pleasant word for me when we met but never entered into a general conversation with me until he learned that I had once been wounded by a Mexican As soon as he was told of this he came to see me and expressed freely his opinion of the average Mexican and his aversion to all Mexicans in general I invited him to visit me again which he did and upon his invitation I visited him at his tepee in the Fort Sill Military reservation In the summer of 1905 Dr J M Greenwood superintendent of schools at Kansas City Missouri visited me and I took him to see the chief Geronimo was quite formal and reserved until Dr Greenwood said I am a friend of General Howard whom I have heard speak of you Come said Geronimo and led the way to a shade had seats brought for us put on his war bonnet and served watermelon à lApache cut in big chunks while he talked freely and cheerfully When we left he gave us a pressing invitation to visit him again In a few days the old chief came to see me and asked about my father I said you mean the old gentleman from Kansas Cityhe has returned to his home He is you father said Geronimo No I said my father died twentyfive years ago Dr Greenwood is only my friend After a moments silence the old Indian spoke again this time in a tone of voice intended to carry conviction or at least to allow no further discussion Your natural father is dead this man has been your friend and adviser from youth By adoption he is your father Tell him he is welcome to come to my home at any time It was of no use to explain any more for the old man had determined not to understand my relation to Dr Greenwood except in accordance with Indian customs and I let the matter drop In the latter part of that summer I asked the old chief to allow me to publish some of the things he had told me but he objected saying however that if I would pay him and if the officers in charge did not object he would tell me the whole story of his life I immediately called at the fort Fort Sill and asked the officer in charge Lieutenant Purington for permission to write the life of Geronimo I was promptly informed that the privilege would not be granted Lieutenant Purington explained to me the many depredations committed by Geronimo and his warriors and the enormous cost of subduing the Apaches adding that the old Apache deserved to be hanged rather than spoiled by so much attention from civilians A suggestion from me that our government had paid many soldiers and officers to go to Arizona and kill Geronimo and the Apaches and that they did not seem to know how to do it did not prove very gratifying to the pride of the regular army officer and I decided to seek elsewhere for permission Accordingly I wrote to President Roosevelt that here was an old Indian who had been held a prisoner of war for twenty years and had never been given a chance to tell his side of the story and asked that Geronimo be granted permission to tell for publication in his own way the story of his life and that he be guaranteed that the publication of his story would not affect unfavorably the Apache prisoners of war By return mail I received word that the authority had been granted In a few days I received word from Fort Sill that the President had ordered the officer in charge to grant permission as requested An interview was requested that I might receive the instructions of the War Department When I went to Fort Sill the officer in command handed me the following brief which constituted my instructions.
