Ethos is referring to credibility or trust and one of the main things of it is confidence and it can use many sources that are reproducing the main idea.

Chief Joseph was the leader of the Wallowa band of Nez Perce, which was a Native American tribe found in the interior Pacific Northwest region of the United States. Chief Joseph led his band during their forced removal of their ancestral lands. In his surrender speech, Chief Joseph employs various rhetorical devices. The most important of this is pathos.
