Former Government
Scout Visits This CITY
AN EYEWITNESS OF CUSTER MASSACRE
Gives Lecture on Some Stirring Historical Events
Of the Early Days in the West

Benjamin Nc Intosh, the only
living eye witness of the Custer
Massacre, has been spending a
few days i'm the city visiting his
.old friend, p. G. Sweeney. Mr..
Nc lntosh was a government
scout at the time of the Custer
fight and was known as Curly
the Crow under which name
many of our readers will remem-
her having read of him.
Just before the battle started
he was sent by General Custer to
Major Reno with orders for him
to join Custer. Reno refused to
move up and he went i'm search
of Captain Bernstein to inform
him of the predicament Clusters
forces were i'm. Me Intosh was
sent back to Custer by Bernstein
and upon his arrival within
about a mile of Clusters position
he found him completely sur
rounded by Indians. He witness
ed the remainder of the fight
from a high hill about three quar-
ters of a mile away He saw the
last volley fired by Cusler's man
and saw the Indians rush i'm ON
them.
As soon as She last soldiers
were killed and the Indians had
finished plundering the dead
bodies they all left the battle
field and Nc Intosh went down
TO where the body of Custer lay.
One horse was the only living
thing left on the field. He re-
mained by the side of Custer and
was found there four hours later
by General Terry when he came
to Clusters relief.
Mr. Me Intosh is sevenfy-four
years of age and he and his sis
ter have the distinction Of being
the first white children born in
Montana. When a small child
he was taken prisoner by the In
diaEs and lived among them for
a number of years and it was
while living among them that he
received the name of "Curly the
Grow, a name by which he was
( known during his entire career
as a scout. He lectured Mon

District Court For
BeneWdh Starts
CRIAINAL CALENDER TRlALSNEXT WEEK
A Large Attendance Of Lawyers at the Opening
Session This Morning

The first session of the district
court for Benewah county was
opened in this city this morning
with Judge r. N. Dunn presiding.
Judge Dunn issued a special ven-
ire for a jury, no jurymen having
been drawn and no jury list hav-
ing been provided by the county
commissioners. The judge call
ed the calendar TO ascertain what
cases were ready for trial and to-
prepare the order i'm which they
would be taken up. The time of
the court will be devoted first to
the hearing of motions and ar
guments on demurrer.
The first jury case that will be
taken up is that of the State of
Idaho against II. c.. Jones, charg-
ed with murder in the second de-
gree. This is the most impor-
lant case which will be tried at
this term of court. County At
torney Elder states that a large
number of witnesses have been
subpoenaed to give evidence on
one side or the other of the case
and that it will probably take a
week at least to try it. The
three BrOtherlOn cases, one for
embezzlement and two for fraud
are also important cases and Will
take up considerable of the time
of the court.
The civil cases to be tried that
are of the most interest to the
people here are the two against
The city for damages arising over
the street grade. These are
pending on demurrer but the at
torncys state that they Will prob
ably be tried on their merits al
this term of court. Another i'm
porlant case that is on The cal
endar is Charles j. Kinsolving
VS.. the Milwaukee Lumber cont
pany, which is an action on ac-
count growing out of the sale of
Kinsolving's timber claim to The
lumber company. This is pend
ing on demurrer to the plaintif's s
complaint and it is not know whe-
lher or not it will be tried on its
merits at this term of court. r.
p. Norris is attorney for the
plaintiff and E. n. LaVeine for
the defendant.
