After that he always hada pleasant word for me when we met, but never entered into a general conversation with me until he learned that I had once been wounded by a Mexican. As soon as he was told of this, he came to see me and expressed freely his opinion of the average Mexican, and his aversion to all Mexicans in general.  \nI invited him to visit me again, which he did, and upon his invitation, I visited him at his tepee in the Fort Sill Military reservation.  \nIn the summer of 1905 Dr. J. M. Greenwood, superintendent of schools at Kansas City, Missouri, visited me, and I took him to see the chief. Geronimo was quite formal and reserved until Dr. Greenwood said, \"I am a friend of General Howard, whom I have heard speak of you.\" \"Come,\"said Geronimo, and led the way to a shade, had seats brought for us, put on his war bonnet, and served wate","cbCaicjvKGkN3FDx","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicjvKGkN3FDx","pdf",1504863,76,"English","# Contents\n## Part I: The Apaches\n## Part II: The Mexicans\n## Part III: The White Men\n## Part IV: The Old and the New","[{\"question\":\"What is the stated purpose of compiling Geronimo’s story?\",\"answer\":\"The compiler aims to provide the reading public an authentic record of Apache private life and to offer Geronimo, as a prisoner of war, the right to state the causes behind his opposition to civilization and laws.\"},{\"question\":\"Who took down and edited the work?\",\"answer\":\"The title page credits S.
