sees a group of some thirty graves
a couple of hundred yards from the
main position on the ridge. This
would indicate a desperate charge
straight at the Indian stronghold, for
one would hardly contemplate an es-
cape in that direction. Down behind
the ridge, in a place a cavalryman
would select at first glance for his
horses during a battle, stand some
fifty tablets in regular line. These
men must have. had charge of the
horses, for the old cavalrynlan at |
the agency told me that they found
this gully packed full of dead and
wounded horses. One horse, "Com-
anche," survived his wounds and re-
manned the pet of the regiment until
his death, many years after. He be-
came famous in song and story.
And last of all, we arrive back at
the spot where Custer himself fell
the group of fifty stones standing on
the slope just below the big monu-
ment. Clusters body seems strangely
out of place here, as one would nat
urally look for the commanding officer
on the highest part of the field. Per-
haps they were making for the top
of the ridge when they were ridden
down and killed. Or, perhaps they
really were on top and a sudden
charge from the opposite side hurled
them pell NELL down the hill in the
last desperate struggle. Clusters
body was not mutlated nor scalped,
but the Indians declare that this was
due merely to an oversight in the con-
/ fusion, and not to any sentiment

he had sworn undying enmity to the
brave captain, and had sworn to cut
his heart out. Just how he wreaked
his revenge is told here. in his own
words (quoted from Brady's hOok)
the only time he was ever known to
talk on the fight:

from the past record of Clusters mer
it is safe to say that they died like

by his father when Leopold senior was
convinced that his son really meant TO
devote his life to the stage as ne as
serted. Young Leopold was offered a
partnership in his fathers business after
his graduation from the University or
Pennsylvania, but this he declined, saying
that as he had made a little success out
