campaign Of 1876 against the
northern Sioux and their allies from
the south, the Sioux and Cheyennes, an
affair known as the Custer campaign.
The catastrophe that overwhelmed the
gallant General Custer and his brave
command was an episode that will
live forever in Indian history.
In the summer of 1874 General Sher-
idan sent two expeditions into what
was known as the northern country.
He sent General Custer with the Sew
enth cavalry from Fort Abraham Lin
coin to scout in the north and north
west of the Black Hills and to return
through the Black Hills back to his
post. At the same time he sent Colo
mel Arson Mills from the department
of the Platte, leaving the Union Pa
cific railroad at Rawlins, Wyo., on an
expedition to scout the Sweetwater
country, the Big Horn basin and Big
Horn mountain country and to return
by way of the Powder river country
back to his department. l was sent to
guide Colonel Arson Mills expedition.
The two commands, one under Custer
and one under Mills, came within com

ing, on the Powder river, the two com

and holding a consultation. This coun,
try was then comparatively unknown.

Mills marched from Rawlins to
independence Rock, on the Sweetwater
river, where he made supply camp
and left his wagons. General Custer
continued on through the Black Hills,
exploring it in every hole and corner
and then returned to Fort Abraham
Lincoln. This meeting of the two
commanders was the last time ever
saw the general 1t was on Clusters
expedition through the Black Hills that
the old timers assertions Of it's wealth
in gold were confirmed and practical
ly demonstrated Therefore, although
the governments intention was to keep
out invaders of this section (many Of
the first being arrested by the mill
tary). the efforts were failure, for
the rush became so great as to render
it impracticable to arrest it. This
brought about irritation on the part of
the Indians. During rs and IS the
