摘要

Times were a changing in California in 1911. Just as the last surviving member of the Native American Yahi tribe emerged from the timberline in Northern California, the California Legislature was turning the corner. Ishi, “the last wild Indian in North America,” [1] was discovered by workers in a local slaughterhouse in Butte County’s Oroville, California as he walked from the woods, tired and hungry. After being jailed for his own safety by then Butte County Sheriff Webber, Ishi (who’s origin was unknown by authorities) was offered a hot meal by Under-Sheriff Will White.
