Tournament to help youth travel to Italy with Team USA This Richard Macy drawing shows the house where Billy Chinook lived on the reservation. A m o n g th e h isto ric a l drawings by artist Richard Macy is the house on the res ervation where Billy Chinook once lived. T he house is no longer there, though rem nants re m ain at the site on Miller Flat. Macy used an old photo g ra p h o f th e b u ild in g to make the drawing. Historian and a u th o r G eo rg e A guilar first showed the photo to Macy. T he photograph is small and dark, and Macy had to use a magnifying glass to better see the details and recreate them. Macy was inspired to make, the drawing, because Billy Chi nook is his great great grandfa ther. Billy C hinook, o r W illiam Parker, lived on the reservation later in his life, after the tribes and the U.S. governm ent signed th e T rea ty o f 1855, w h ich Parker helped to negotiate on behalf o f the tribes. As a young man, Billy lived at The Dalles. H e later traveled with the Frem ont expedition in the 1840s to California. H e lived fo r a tim e in W ashington, D .C ., and in Philadelphia. H e then moved back to California, and then returned to The Dalles, where he becam e an advocate o f his Wasco people. After the treaty, Billy was relocated to the reservation, where he lived on Miller Flat until his passing in 1890.
