the death of the great Sioux chief Phianthro-
pists in the east who never had seen an Indian
tepee insisted that Sitting Bull was murdered and
that the blood OF the savage was upon the head
of the nation.
1t was left to Col Edward G. Fechet now pro-
lessor Of military science at the University OF
Illinois, TO learn the truth of the shooting of Sit
ting Bull and to give knowledge of it to the peo
pie Col then captain) Fechet made one Of the
hardest rides known to the troops of the plains
before he secured the facts in the case of the
passing of the great Sioux chief to the happy
hunting grounds.
Sitting Bulls home was In log hut on the
Standing Rock Indian reservation Of North
Dakota. In the summer of 1880 he gath
cred many of his braves about him
and told them in picturesque Sioux language
that Messiah to come who would lead the
Sioux nation to victory; that the whites would be
-annibilated; that the buffalo would come back.
and that the red man would once more take pos
session of the earth
Through the medicine men Sitting Bull worked
upon the feelings and the superstitons of his
warriors that they came to believe that by wear
ing certain garments which were called ghost
shirts their bodies would be safe from the bullets
of the soldiers.
When Gen Miles learned of the teachings OF
Sitting Bull and of their rapid spread, the chiefs
led by Lieut. Bull Head and Sergt. Shave Head
were dispatched from Fort Yates to arrest the
chief at his log hut miles away. Capt Fechet OF
the Eighth cavalry was ordered with his COM
mand, consisting of two troops and, If memory
serves two light field pieces to make night
march to Oak Creek, about Is miles from Sitting
Bulls house, there to receive the prisoner when
he was turned over by Lieut.. Bull Head,
Capt Fechet and his men reached the rendez
vous at 4: 30 a. m. one of the coolest mornings
of a Dakota December day. There no sign
of the Indian police, nor yet of the scout which
Bull Head was to send in advance to inform
the cavalry officer of his coming.
Fechets soldier instinct told him at once that
there must be trouble, His men had had the
hardest kind of night ride, but they were will
ing and he pushed forward rapidly After he
had made several miles he was met by a scout
who was riding like mad. The runner told Fechet
that all the Indian police who had gone to arrest
Sitting Bull had been killed by the ghost dancers
and that there were thousands upon thousands
of them fully armed and in their war paint ready
for battle.
Fechet looked over his small command and
mt ahead at full gallop. his only thought being
to save such of the policemen as might be alive,
and giving no heed to the other thought that
ahead of him might be Overwhelming numbers
OF the sayages and the fate of Custer IL was
a terrible ride from that time on.

return nre
Capt. Fechet had his Hotchkiss thrown into
action and he dropped a shell in front OF the
ghost dancers and then the command charged
down the hill
The shell had its frightening effect on the
savages, who held aloof though still pouring in
their fire. which was answered by the soldiers
as Fechet himself took rapid course to the log
house, with his life In his hands every step OF
the way.
Inside the hut were found three of the Indian
policemen dead and three MORALLY wounded The
wounded, resolved on exactng price for their
coming death, were still using their rifles against
the besieging foe. The soldiers finally drove the
savages to flight.
The few that we're left living Of the little force
OF Indian police told this story. Lieut. Bull Head
had arrested Sitting Bull and had led the chief
from his cabin only to be confronted by hundreds
OF crazed savages. Catchthe-Bear and strikethe.
