Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1906-11-28

In an article recently published con-
corning the famous Indian chiefs, a
rather startling statement is made to
the effect that the delegation from KeO-
kuk who went to secure the remains
of Chief Keokuk for interment in Keo-
kuk, found the head missing and sent
a rush order to st. Louis for a substi-
tute skull. The authority of the writer
of the article is not known. but the
statement is considered improbable. 1t
is a very interesting and valuable ar
ticle, however, and is well worth peru
sal and preservation.
