Subject:                      Politics   -   Political Cartoon  -   England's Help for Sitka, Alaska -  Indian Uprising

                                    "The citizens of Sitka supplicated the commander of her Majesty's ship Osprey for protection

                                      from the Indians, representing that without immediate Protection fears of indiscriminate

                                      massacre were entertained.  The commander signified his readiness to go, on an official request,

                                      if instructed that the situation was urgent.  No objection was made by me, nor was protection

                                      asked as necessary, and so I informed the commander.  The Osprey left for Sitka today at noon."
