"LONESOME CHARLEY" REY-
 NOLDS, BUSTERS SCOUT
e, Western Newspaper Union.

Many noted scouts served with Gen eral Custer during his Indian cam paigns, but his favorite of them all was Charles Reynolds, known as Lonesome Charley" In the early seventies, Reynolds was a hunter for the garrison at Fort Rice, N. D. He was quiet little man who ived much to himself and preferred to hunt alone. no matter how many hos tile Indians were near. Because of his disregard for human companion ship. he became known by everyone ss Lonesome Charley"
 Reynolds first served under Custer country in 1873. During his expedi- tion two inoffensive civilians with Custer's command were murdered by the Indians. The next year, while Reynolds was attending sun dance of the Sioux near Fort A. Lincoln, N. D., he heard young chief named Rain-in-the-Face boast of the murder of the two men. Charley reported this to Custer and Rain-in-the-Face was arrested and imprisoned. Later he escaped and sent back his nowfar1ons VOW of vengeance of the whole Custer family.
 Lonesome Charley" was with Gus ter during the exploration of the Black hills in 1874. When gold was discovered, at Custer's request he rode 150 miles, through country swarming with hostile Indians to Fort Laramie, Wyo., in AS hours and gave to the world the first news of the discovery, causing a stampede of min CTS into that region.
 When Custer started on his last campaign against the Sioux in 1876, Reynolds was offered the position of chief guide.
 When the Seventh cavalry left the steamer Far West Reynolds was ill. Capt. Grant Marsh of the Far West tried to persuade him not to go with the expedition since he was in no condition to do any fighting. Reynolds refused.
 I've been waiting and getting ready for this expedition for two years, captain, and I'd rather be dead than miss it." he said earnestly. So he rode away to his death.
 When Custer divided his command to attack the Sioux on the Little Big Horn, the scout was sent with Major Reno. The Indians swept down upon Reno and forced him back to the wooded bluffs across the Nver. Lone some Charley" was killed in this re treat. His body was found surrounded by 60 empty cartridge shells. He had died fighting.

 "Men who used to drink didn't eat much, They satisfied their longing for something by the call Come on boys, the next rounds on me" and while women were hanl- ing and starving to keep their syiph like forms, the fellows did il in a simpler and .pleasanter way.
