Belly DoDD. THE 'MAN WHO
.SCALPS HIMSELF

Some historians have asserted that
Belly Dodd was myth, but some Of
the old scouts who knew him well
Do not agree with them. ASK: some
OF the Injuns who raided along the
old Santa Fe trail about The Man
Who Scalps Himself,' - they said, with
laugh Like California Joe, Dodd
WIS a practical joker, and one Of his
jokes once defeated band of Indians
and saved a wagon train from the
horrors Of a massacre.
Dodd was guiding a caravan Of
traders to Santa Fe At night they
parked their wagons in q circle with
the mules corralled inside to prevent
their being starnpeded If Indians at
tackled. Outside the circle guards
were posted to give warning at the
FIRST appearance Of savage.
Just before daylight one morning
the traders were awakened bysa shot,
and rushed out to find a guard lying
wounded on the ground. In the next
instant a band of Pawnees charged
down on the train. A fierce battle fol-
lowed. The Indians who attacked
the train were REINFORCED by a larger
band and in a short time it became
evident that the train, whose defend
ers We're hopelessly outnumbered, was
doomed. Suddenly Dodd, whose rifle
had knocked down more than one
painted warrior, threw aside his weap-
on and dashed outside the circle of
wagons.
II lf,,-~ g ~, 1A I'D int
the midst of the charging PawneeS.
Before the, Indians could recover from
their surprise at his bold act Dodd
whipped out his long knife, ran II
around the edge of his hair, and with
wild yell, tore off his shock of black
hair and waved 1t about his head.
1t was too much for the Pawnees.
With howl of terror, they broke and
ran. DOdd was swift runner-he
could hold his own In running beside
a gallOping buffalo, 1t is said-and he
pursued the frightened redskins,
shrieking and waving his "scalp" I'M
til they left him far behind. A wig
had saved wagon train!
After that time any wagon train
which Belly DOdd guided over the
Santa Fe trail was safe If the Indians
saw DOdd in the lead. They had no
use for n man who could scalp him
self and still live.
What became OF Belly Dodd and
where he died is as much a mystery
as his birth and early life. He played
his little role as a comedian in the
drama of the West, and then, like many
greater actors, he passed on and was
soon forgotten.

Ocala, Feb. 5, 1921.
Mr.. Lewis G. Thompson, Secretary
Florida Railroad Commissions:
Dear Sir: Yours of third received. I
regret to say | cannot observe as yet
any result from Mr.. Burns instruc-
tions. | was at the union station
when the southbound Seaboard limited
came in yesterday afternoon. 1t stop
ped with one of the parlor cars right
across the Atlantic Coast Line tracks.
The passengers from the second car
he'd to get out, taking long awkward
step to the ground and then walking
forward half a car-length to the Coast
Line track, which they had to climb
over before they could reach the plat
form. The limited is rather short
train, seldom carrying more than five
cars. The local trains are longer, and
often a considerable number of pas
sengers have to get off, take long
walk over rough path, under drip
ping water tank, and across a high
track to the platform. This is not so
rough on US natives, who are used to
the Seaboard trainmen, and pretty
well subjugated by them, but stran-
ger getting off here, particularly at
night, might think he had in some
mysterious manner been transported
to Africa, and was alighting in the
outskirts of a Hottentot village on
the Cape to Cairo line.
| have travelled on railroads where
trains had to stop in such awkward
places, and the trainmen always had
the good sense and courtesy to lead
the passengers thru the cars until
they arrived at the most safe and
easy place to alight, but the tact and
care for passengers prevalent on
trains in the passes of the Blue Ridge
or on the prairies of Texas is not
overpoweringly evident on the Tampa
and jacksonville division of the Sea-
board Air Line.
The trouble is caused, so the train
men seem to think, by the short sheds
and platforms of the station. The
platforms are truly too short and the
sheds are a joke. However, railroad
rlen supervised building the station,
and they had no excuse for the made
quate platforms and sheds. Now that
the trainmen to pull the trains far
enough down the line to allow the
passengers to alight in comfort and
safety. 1t takes a husky man to hold
a railroad job, and it is a disgrace to
the Seaboard that it allows husky men
ct one end of a train to work in al
most luxurious convenience while at
the other women and children are
making strenuous efforts to travel over
a rough, dark and often sloppy path
to gain the platform
This kind of business has been 60
ing on ever since the station has been
in use, nearly four years.
/ note Mr. Burns has told you he
will have two stops made, one for the
passengers and the other for the bag
gage and express. | sincerely hope
Mr.. Burns viii keep his promise, and
will let you know when he does,
also when he doesn't. | really believe
he meant to keep it when he made it.
Mr.. Burns is mighty fine young man
and think he could charm bird out
of tree. | am sure his railroad

of the Seaboard's promises he would
make a precedent. Promises are like
plecrust, and if Ocala had all the
busted pfecrust the Seaboard has un-
loaded on her, and she could send it to
the Near East children, Herb. Hoover
wouldn't have to raise that thirty
three million dollars.
Mr.. Thompson, is there not a law
or a regulation that no train shall
stand across the track of another
railroad longer than is absolutely nee
|essary? There is no necessity for the
Seaboard trains to stand across that
crossing. 1t is done simply and solely
for the convenience of the trainmen.
The Coast Line at the same point does
not leave its trains across the Sea-
board track. It's men have as much
right to stop their engine at the end
of their shed as the Seaboard men
have to stop at the end of theirs
Sometimes the engineers and firemen
on the long, night Coast Line trains
have to walk back thru the weeds to
reach the restaurant for their needed
coffee and lunch.
If the commission will investigate
this matter, the members will fine
