Nathan's Quilt


BUFFALO

(pieced strips)

The "men" have come to kill the buffalo
At Ft. Wingate
Because they're old.

It is in the winter of "ninty six"
But it isn't because they're cold.

"It isn't fair!"
The children cried.
"They're old and useless"
The men replied.
But the people rallied and petitioned
The "powers that be"
To save the buffalo
For you and me.

The men have come to fight the Buffalo
And the buffalo WON
