  1. march 11, 1854, seattle gave a speech at outdoor gathering in seattle.  meeting  called by governor stevens to discuss the surrender or sale of native land to white settlers. his speech was supposed to be plea to respect native rights and environmental values. and allow natives to move unhindered to their burial grounds.  

    tecumseh made many impromptu speeches but not like seattle great speech.  he tried to ward off american encroachment on native land - he believe god has given the land for all to own and use and enjoy and not meant for private ownership.  he was killed by the americans for stirring the native chiefs agst american land acquisition.  some took his side.  he teamed up with the british to fight the americans
