In the pictures are two of the Apache
Indian chiefs, Chief Cochise, and Chief
Geronimo. They had both protected
The Apache Kid, when he was young,
and when he was an adult. They kept
him out of trouble, and they kept him
alive.
The Apache Kid never showed any
gratitude for them. That is why they
sent him to a camp, to teach him to
learn some respect for others. That
was an act of love from them, but the
Apache Kid escaped from the camp
after two weeks.
But if it had not been for his two weeks
at that camp, he would not have had
the respect to give his life to the
enemy.
