"The Death of Custer, by Lee John
son, a descriptive American and Indian
fantasy was reproduced in wonder
fully effective and descriptive manner.
The Sioux Indian dance, preceding on
the eve before the battle, the bugle
calls in Clusters camp before forming
in line of march were realistic to say
the least. The battle Of Little Big
Horn. June 25, 1876, in which Custer
lost his life was reproduced as far as
sound was concerned. The boom of
the artillery and rattle of musketry
were reproduced by firing off blank
cartridges. The band done it's part
and most stirring war melodies reacted
this wonderful bit of history again.
The American Eagle march conclu-
ded the program, those being present
having been treated to two hours of
good music.
