Indian

How Jack
Stilwell
Brought
Relief to Ills
Comrades

Judge Jack Stilwell, once famous as
an Indian scout, but who in later years
has become distinguished as a lawyer
In Arizona, Texas Wyoming and Ari.
iona, is spending his declining days in
the shadow of Eagle mountain. Giles
Stilwell, known as Jack all his life,
was the friend and contemporary of
General Custer, Wild Bill, Texas Jack,
Buffalo Bill and General Miles.
His most noteworthy achievement
took place while he was scout under
General Forsyth during the summer OF
1868. General Miles tells the story
most interestingly:
Brevet Lieutenant Colonel George A.
Forsyth, commanding Il small body OF
about thirty citizens enlisted as scouts,
camped beside the .Arickaree river,
small stream in northern Kansas. The
Indians has been reported as rising"
and the purpose of the expedition was
to ascertain the true state of affairs.
There was very little water in the riv.
er, it being the dry season-Sept. II, In
fact-and the party, fearing attack, en-.

the river. Jack Stilwcll was one of
the scouts. About 9 o'clock in the
morning they were attacked by band
of 300 warriors, who shot at them from
both banks.
The men placed themselves in cir
Gle, lying down, and each one instantly
began digging a rifle pit for himself.
The Indians were repulsed and retreat
ed. Roman Nose, their leader, was
killed in the charge, and the river
banks We're strewn with dead warriors. .
Taking account of the damage done,
they found that they had suffered Sc
verely. All the horses and mules had
been killed. making it impossible for .
them to get away. Lieutenant Beecher,
second in command, and five men had
also been killed or MORALLY wounded,
and seventeen men, including Colonel
Forsyth had been wounded. Practi
cally only seven men out Of the thirty
were unframed. Obviously the thing to
do was to get help, and that was the
very thing which the Indians We're on
the sharpest lookout to prevent.
Fort Wallace, the nearest military
post, was hundred miles away. and
Forsyth and his men were without
food. surrounded by 900 Indians from
all the northern nations, including

The water did wonders for him. and

THE MEN NIP IN \ HlFEAlp SKELETON,
northern Cheyennes, Ogallallas, Sioux
and that queer combination of many
tribes known as dog soldiers" The
situation was desperate.
The dead horses were cut into strips
for food. and a well inside the circular
hreastworks was dug for water. The
defense was strengthened with useless
saddles and dead carcasses. and, watch
full against surprise, they passed four
days with no sign from the Indians
but an occasional shot.
On the fifth day the meat could no
longer be eaten. and the suffering be
came intense. Help must be summoned
or the command must perish. Jack
Stilwell, one of the few who had es-
capped unframed so far, offered to go to
Fort Wallace 1t looked to he sure
death to venture outside of the
charmed circle. Old Pete Trudeau, n
frontiersman, volunteered to accompa-
ny him.
The natural way to 90 would have
been down the river or through one OF
the many ravines that started from
the river bank The most dangerous
way was to go straight up over the
bald hill in front of the island. Still
well thought the ravineS would be full
of Indians, and he also thought that
the water course would be most closely
guarded. so he chose the trail over the
bald hill.
Crawling on their hands and knees.
they were able to make only three
miles before dawn that night. They
forced to lie still frequently. The three
miles brought them to the divide be-
tween the Arickaree and South Repub-
ican. There they concealed themselves
for the day in a washOut or the head of
a hollow, where the banks had been
flowers. They left no trail behind
them. and they were satisfied that they
would not be discovered. From over
the hill they could hear firing all day.

two parties of Indians in front of them,
which delayed them greatly, and yet

At about that time the endless chain

pumps.
In the seventeenth century rotating
pumps, like the Pappenham engine,

with plunger pstons were invented by

When asked concerning conditions in Bea-

having plenty Of rain. and in the estima-
ton OF the cattlemen the range would be
much better If it would stop raining right
now. The grass is having a rank growth
and unless il stops soon IL VIII be some
time before cattle win fatten on grass
as they have in The past. Another thing
IS that when grass has such a growth as
it has had this year, il makes the follow
ing winter hard one for stock The
grass grows long and does not cure prop
erly, and IL seems that there IL not much
nutriment in it This has invariably been
the case in our county, and ] am in hopes
that conditions VIII change. Stock is look
ing fine. however. and there are many
cattle on the range.

tention especially, yet it is said that there
are more cattle in Beaver county this
year than ever before"
What about the taking OF claims in
your county,
1T seems that there has not been as
many filings in Beaver county during the

that the trees planted under the latter
