The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1895-02-27

an Indian war of revenge would have fol-
| lowed and no one knows what
| the result might have been. The
Indians outnumbered us three to
one in Montana then and a massacre
| would surely have avenged the killing OF
| the squaws, their children and those men
we met on their journey. The fate of the
| eight of US for a moment trembled in the
balance and nothing but Hugh O'Neil's
| brave heart and cool head saved us that
| day. Hugh had his weak moments, and
who has not? But think that his record
made when he saved those harmless lives
| in 1868 will not be forgotten where he has
| gone across the divide.
