admitted as the fashionable substi-
tute for plain white. Once the rigor-
Gus prescription of stiff white bosoms
for evening wear was thus relaxed,
there was no telling what extremes
the daring might go.
Already, they have reached black.
The distinctive features of the new

through the war and then came west
as a mule skinner and horse
w~rangler for General Phil Sheridan.
In the early '70s Tibbetts drifted into
the Pine Ridge agency. He was then
well to do and purchased o squaw
named Wahtela from Nick Jannise, a
representative of the America Fur Co.
With the squaw went a beautiful half
breed girl, Alice Edkoly, daughter Of
Wahtela by a former consort. After
living with Wahtela and Alice for
several years Tibbetts having grown
rich longed for another wife and fell
desperately in love with Emily Jan
mise, a daughter of Old Nick Jannise.
who also had had other %concubiners
than Wahtela. Tibbetts married
Emily and at about the same time
Alice became the bride of George
White, an agency clerk. Five months
after the union Alice gave birth to a
baby boy, who has been known on the
reservation as William White Tibbetts
AT the time of his birth common rumor
on The reservation was to the effect that
Tibbetts had induced White to marry
Alice in order that her prospective
child should be born in wedlock. White
deserted Alice a few days after the
birth of her baby and has not been
seen or heard of since. Those who
knew White affirm that he was made
neart broken by the advent of the baby
and was madly in love with the beau |
tiful Indian girl.
For several years Tibbetts supported
the boy and Alice at the home of
Wahtela, his wife Emily having de
clined to receive the boy in her home
and went so far as to threaten his
life. Old Wahtela had the boy in the
sage brush at n time ard kept him
out of sight for feat Wahtela might
do him bodily harm.
John Farnbam. administrator of the
estate of Tibbetts and his wife Emily
both of whom died about a year ago
was prepared to distribute the Tib-
belts estate to Sepic pullian, a half
breed Sioux girl adopted by the lib
belts, and a grandson, son of a deceased
son by Tibbetts and Wahtela. William
brought a petition to the circuit court
and the jury have declared him an heir
az law of Ben Tibbetts.
