The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1876-11-19

The endless chain of days, hours,
minutes and seconds, with its eternal
motion, has brought us to the thresh.
old of another week. Thousands hayo
dropped out of the ranks and crossed
the s'dark river'' under the wing of the
death angel. The holy day of rest in
again at hand and the weak and weary
mortals-but we weren't cut out for a
preacher. The remorseless bill collec-
tor will be on hand tomorrow, tho
laundress will tackle unhappy bachelors
for last weeks wash bill, the restaurant
man will load up his shotgun and dun
his boarders, while Rapherty and
MaGilder will start out on a new lunch
route, happy in the consciousness Of
having no money and therefore no fear
Of robbers.

Hosford. This enraged him, and
drawing his revolver he fired at Hos
ford twice without effect. He was
cooking the weapon a third time when
Hosford, to save his own life, drew a
pistol and shot Lightner, killing him
almost instantly.
Mr.. Hosford is well and very favor
ably known in this city, and holds the
position of deputy collector of internal
revenue for this territory. lie has bern
in the Black Hills for four or five
months past. That he was fully justi-
fed in ST footing Lightner, there can be
not a shadow of doubt, as there were
several ladies in the house and Light
ner used vile and abusive language in
their presence thing which no gem
tleman would brook. We have reliable
information showing Lightner's worth
lessness, but the man is dead and there
is no necessity Of publishing it.

wher. Sitting Bull is winterin..

Considerable discussion has recently
taken place in some of the newspapers
concerning the present whereabouts of
Sitting Bull and his band, as they have
been located in many different locali-
ties; sometimes on the Big Horn, and
often away up in British America, in u
region which rejoices in the nams of
Whoop Up. But all Of these surmises
and statements, as we learn from good
authority-military and otherwise-are
incorrect. Sitting Bull, with his band of
robbers and cut-throats, is snow cam2ed
on the Dry Fork Of the Missouri,
the paradise of the buffalo, elk, deer,
bear and other game; and In all probs-
bility lie intends to winter there. So,
let the Choteau people rest content;
Sitting Bull will not trouble them this
winter.
