ing the latter's campaign against the
Sioux Indians in South Dakota, in the
'70s. At that time he was deathly sick,
and came near dying, and Mrs. Cody
remarked she did not care II he did
Her object in administering the
dragons blood, as she told Mrs. Boyer
was to regain the coloneIs love, which
she had lost. The witness declared
she also administered other potions
in the hope of getting control of him
so that he would sign papers and deed
over property to her.
The second time she drugged him
was on the occasion of a big ban
