SEEKS BODY OF MURDERED MAN.
Fatefu History Of Red Canyon Re-
called by EIIiande's Visit to Hills.

J. B. Elliande of Georgetown, Colo,
has arrived in Custer on an errand
| which recalls to the minds of all old
timers the fateful history of Red can
yon. In 1876 Mr. Ellande's brother
came to the Hills from Cheyenne, and
was murdered by Indians while pass
ing through Red canyon. 1t is said
his body was fearfully mutilated, but
a large amount of money which he
wore in a belt around his waist was
not molested.
Only a short time ago Mr.. Elliande
received word from squaw man at
Pine Ridge, who was with the muir
dered man, regarding this old tragedy.
On receipt of this information he hur-
ried to this city, not with any hope of
recovering the money but to gain per-
mission from the authorities to reopen
all the graves in Red canyon until he
should find the remains of his brother,
which he desired to take back to his
home in Colorado.
There is nothing to distinguish one
Of these graves from another, and the
only way in which the remains can be
identified is by the fact that the miss
ing man had lost forefinger and part
of a thumb.
Red Canyon was known as one Of
the most dangerous places in the route
from Cheyenne to the Hills. 1t rises
from the prairie, and is the first bit
of mountain country to be encountered
on this road 1t was favorite resort
for the Indians. and because of it's
winding passageway, and its impreg-
nable walls, it was almost impossible
for a man or party caught there to
effect an escape.
Here it was that the Metz family,
coming to the Hills from Laramie City,
were set upon and murdered by the
Indians. Here also, "Stuttering
Brown" a stage messenger, and man
known only as "Curley," were killed,
whether by Indians or road-agents
was never known.
