CAPT JACK CRAWFORD. THE
SCOUT WHO WROTE POETRY:
g. Western. Newspaper Union

CAFI. JACK CRAWFORD, THE
SCOUT WHO WROTE POETRY
When bit of sunshine hits W l.,. i
After passin.@o of a cloud, - p, t..
"nen a At, Of laughter gifts 70
An yer spine Is feelin' proud, y
Don't fergit to up and fling it =
At soul. that's feelin' blue.
Fer the mint that ye sling it
Its a boomerang to you.
That was the philosophy Of Capt.
Jack Crawford, the poet-scout. A poet
and scout! A strange combination,
but he excelled as both. John Wallace
Crawford was an Irish boy who came
to this country shortly before the Civil
war began and enlisted in the Union
army when he was only sixteen years
old. While lying in hospital, sister
OF mercy taught him to read and write.
After the war Crawford drifted
West and became miner in the Black
Hills Of South Dakota. When the
Black Hills rangers were organized
to protect the miners from hostile
Sioux and bands Of highway robbers.
Jack was chosen chief. In one fight
he killed three desperadoes.
At the outbreak of the Sioux war in
1875 Captain Jack enlisted as scout
and rose to the position of chief OF
scouts for the Fifth cavalry. After
the battle of Slim Buttes, S. D., where
Chief American Horse was killed,
Captain Jack, who was also CORE
spondent for the New York Herald,
gave the world the first story of this
fight. Crawford rode to Fort Laramie,
$50 miles away, in three days and
half, outriding five relays Of couriers,
but he killed two horses doing it.
During the Apache wars in Arizona
Crawford was again in the saddle as
a scout for Gen. Edward Hatch. In
1881 he took the trail of the notorious
chief, Victoria, and after a scout of
16 days, located his camp in the Can
deleria mountains in Mexico. Captain
Jack then made another remarkable
ride to the nearest post. AS a result
of his news, Victories camp was at.
tackled by Mexican troops and the old
chief and many Of his warriors were
killed.
When the Indian wars were over,
Captain Jack began writing down
the verses which he had recited to his
comrades around many campfire on
the Indian campaigns. He went on
the lecture platform and in short
time the "Poet-Scout" was one Of the
best-known of the old-time scouts in
the country, second only to his old
comradel Of the Fifth cavalry, Buffalo
Bill. In a little over a month after
Buffalo Bills death, Captain Jack fol-
lowed him on the Long Trail. He died
in Now York February %, 1917.

Hartford municipal court Saturday
Dec. 8, John Ansuck was brought IL
from Wilder by Deputy A. McAula,
for disturbing the peace. Four young
lads appeared against the respondent
tes tifying that az they were returning
from a scout meeting they engaged IN
a sociable game Of SNOWFALL on the
street and were surprised to see the
said John approaching with all his war
paint on while near his house. Most OF
the scouts con 'idered safety first
and made a hasty retreat, but young
Bob White fell into the hands OF the
irate John and showed as an exhibit
against him a bump slightly in excess
of the normal size of a normal boys
head at the age of II years, which
was eau ed by the application OF
Johns fist.
The respondent pleaded guilty to the
charge Of disturbing the peace, but
claimed that the boys were SNOWFALL
ing his house and that he had a sick
baby inside and he proceeded to take
the shortest course to stop the bonn
bardmcnt of his premises, He was fined
and paid costs of Sl6.27 on his plea of
guilty and was cautioned to leave the
duty of policing the streets to the
proper authorities and call their atten-
ton in the event that he suffered any
further annoyance.
The scouts were directed back to
their scout master and he was asked
to give them further instructions as
to their conduct as scouts and to avoid
the careless throwing Of snowballs in
the public streets.
