Question

Read the excerpt from the speech "An Indian's View of Indian Affairs."

Answer 1

I cannot see which words are underlined, but according to what I've read, the last sentence gives it away: 'The white man has more words to tell you how they look to him, but it does not require many words to speak the truth.' This tells me that 'Chief Joseph is going to select his words very carefully' because the truth does not require a lot of words.
