IN HISTORIC MASSACRE
ABBIE GARDNER SHARP, CAPTuR Ell
BY INDIANS IN 1857, IN ST. PAUL.
Rescued From Redskins by Judge
Flandrau's Strategy-Lives in
House From Which She
Was Taken.

Mrs. Abbie Gardner Sharp, who was
one of the four women captured by the
Indians at the historical massacre at
Spirit Lake in 1857, was in the city yes
terday as the guest of Judge Flandrau,
by whose strategy she was rescued from
the redskins after spending four months
in captivity.
Immediately after the terrible scenes
of the wholesale slaughter Miss Abhie
Gardner. as she was then, was carried
away with four other girls, none of
them being over fourteen years of age.
News of the capture was brought to
Judge Flandrau, who at the time was
United States government agent for the
Sioux. He at once conceived the plan
for their rescue, which was entrusted to
two friendly Sioux for execution. They
spent several months with the Indians
who had the girls, and finally returned
with two of them, one of them, Mrs
Sharp, and the other a Mrs. Marble
A curious feature in connection with
the rescue was that the Indians who re-
covered the girls had been promised $500
each, and when they returned Judge
F1andrau was unable to give them more
than half that amount in cash. How
ever. he gave them a territorial bond,
which was also signed by Rev. Mr..
Riggs This bond was for three months,
and was paid by the territory at ma
turity. 1t was the first bond of the
kind ever issued in the West
