Excerpt from Biographical and Historical Memoirs of Adams, Clay, Hall and Hamilton Counties, Nebraska: Comprising a Condensed History of the State, a Number of Biographies of Distinguished Citizens of the Same, a Brief Descriptive History of Each of the Counties Mentioned, and Numerous Biographical Sketches of the Citizens of Such Counties At first the Indians looked upon De Soto and his followers as gods descended from the heavens, and feared them accordingly; but when they saw that the white men were, like themselves, subject to disease and death, and possessed no supernatural power, their enforced friendship turned into deadly hate and open hostility. Their ill-will increased with the brutality with which they were treated whenever they incurred the displeasure Of the cruel and haughty Spaniards. De Soto and his men were compelled to fight many pitched battles with the Indians, who were invariably defeated.
