Had VOLTS wife Dead.

Me-ne-tee,S wife of Mad Wolf,
the noted Cheyenne warrior, about
whom so much has been written,
IS dead. About six weeks ago,
Mad Wolf and Me-no-tee went
over to Arapahoe from their home
near Segers for the purpose of
consulting a physician in relation
to the latter's health. which for the
past three months has been very
poor. Mad Wolf never left his
sick wife for an instant. He
waited on her and attended her
bedside until death came. The
once fierce warrior, who had faced
death on many a battlefield, be-
came the patient nurse and kind
husband. When death came he
had the body of his faithful part
mel laid out and properly dressed
in all the savage finery she had
worn at many a dance and gather
ing, and decently buried in a nice
coffin. A white clergyman read
the funeral service. Mad Wolf
never received an education at the
hands of the government.
