Clusters battle ground said H. S. Park,
the artist and correspondent for Harpers
Weekly and Frank Leslies Illustrated Paper,
lis one of the most curious places 1 ever
visited"
Mr. Park has spent several years at various
places in the western territories
II was saying that the battle ground was
peculiar" cont nued he, "The fight, you
know, took place in a valley on the Little Big
Horn river. Well all about that river and
far in the distance on either side are low, un-
dulating foothi Is, covered in summer with
most luxuriant wild grass and the greatest
variety of wild flowers possible to imagine.
You can find almost any conceivable color
there. In tie distance just over the first low
hills from the river, are other hills covered
with some wild pines and shrubs, character
istic of the high table lands Blending the
bright green grass and many colored flowers
and trees with tho clear sky and the bright
running river, you have q scene for a
painter.
oUTwITTlNG A GREAT COUNTRY
at was here that the heroic Custer fell on
June 26, 1876 The points which got from
the Sioux and others while at Standing Rock
were to the effect that Chief Gall, and not
Sitting Bull, lei the attack AS to the Indian
who killed Gen Custer, it was Rain 1.-THE
Face. Custer had no sooner dismounted to
engage in the Fray than this chief, who, with
his band, was ambushed in the wild pines,
shot him'dead. Then the Indians rushed in
on the troops and engaged in wholesale
butchere
IAN the able bodied Sioux of the 5000 and
more now at Sta.ding Rock agency took
part in the battle, except the old chief, Sit
ting Bull who, as now clearly established,
was away, and thus after long years it de
veloped that S tting Bull, who was credited
with leading the attack, was not there at all
Crowfoot, son Of Sitting Bull, was, however
and it was he who surrendered Sitting Bulls
gun. As for Sitting Bull, he claims that he
never did surrender.
I'VE call this great country, but Is it not
odd that though this battle occurred back in
the middle of 1876, Chief Gall was not cap
tured until the winter of lSS1s Crowfoot
Sitting Bulls son, finally surrendered at Fort
Buford, ID. T., in 1882, and Rain the Face
who was captured shortly after the massacre
and confined at Fort Lincoln for murder, es
capped, and it was not till 1881 that Rain-in
the-Face finally surrendered at Fort Keogh
The government was a long while also il
| capturing several of the other prominent In
dians
There they were out in the hills all thi.
time successfully eludIng the troops, and the
war was prot for years, a mere hand
full of Indians, comparatively, standing of
the entire government force. 1t seems impos
sible, but here the Indians were, now dodging
the soldiers In the mountains and now dash
ing in among them and killing more and fly
ing away again.
