! Many noted scouts served with Cen
eral Custer during his Indian CAM
paigns, but his favorate of them all.
was Charles Reynolds, known as
Lonesome Charley" In the early
seventies, Reynolds was a hunter for
the garrfson at Fort Rice, n. ID. He
was a quiet little man who lfved
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
as Lonesome Charley" 80
Reynolds first served under Custer
in the exploration OF tie Yellowstone
country in 1873. During his expedi-
ton two 'In0nensive civilians with
Clusters 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 a young chief named
Rain-in-the-Face boast of the murder
Of the two men, Charley reported this
to Custer and Eain-in-the-Face was
arrested and imprisoned. Later he
escaped and sent back his now-famous>
vow Of vengeance ct the whole Custer
family.
Lonesome Charley" was with Gus
ter during. the exploration Of the
Black hills in 1874. When gold was
discovered, at Clusters request he
rode $50 miles, through. a country
swarming with hostile Indians to Fort
Laramie, Wyo., in 4S hours and gave
to the world the first news Of the
ers 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 60 with
the expedition since he was in no
condition to do any fighting. Reynolds
refused.
1--WE 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 river. Lone
some Charley" was killed in this re-
treat. His body was found surrounded
by 60 empty cartridge shells. he had
died fighting. =

cor HIS NAME -. a-s>
=. Among the scouts who were with
Gen. Nelson a. Niles, when that Of
f1cer inflicted his crushing defeat up
on the Sioux cher, Crazy Horse, at
the hattie Of Wolf Mountain, Mont,
in 1877 was one bearing the strange
name Of AeEfver-Eatfn' johnson.
Johnson was a powerful Norwegian,
weighing more than 800 pounds and
standing six feet, three inches in his
1noecasfn-clad feet. y He had q great
shock Of golden hair Of which he was
very proud-so much so, that he
refused to wear hat, and when he
went into battle with this golden
name in the wind, he looked like an
ancient Morse viking.
johnson had won his name in a
gruesome way. Two stories about this
are told, differing slightly in detail.
but agreeing in the main facts. One
tells how q party of Indians had
raided a trading post on the Mussel-
shell River, but were driven OF with
heavy loss. 1t is said that Johnson,
in a spirit of ,devilish bravado, cut
out the hvers of several Of the dead
!: warriors and actually ate them.
: The other story seeks to justify
!. Johnson's act. A Cheyenne Chief had
! Tni1ed aand burned Jotfnson's camp
while he was away on a trapping ex-
petition. When he returned and saw
z.the ruins, he Swore that he would
Kill the Cheyenne and eat his Liver.
Later he made good his threat. Either
account may be correct, so far as
details are concerned. At any rate.
< he was ever. afterward known as
!: Liver Eatin' -" Johnson. -
= Johnson's inseparable companion
was "X'' Beidler OF Montana vigilante
:: fame. Beidler disapproyed Of John
::**son's lack Of headgear and called him
"a "yaller-headed 1njun," because, as
he said, every decent white man
wears some sort o coverir for his
: scalp" But Johnson was firm in his
! convictions, and in the fight with
Crazy Horses Sioux he justified him
seH-to his own satisfaction, at least.
AS Beidler and johnson charged up
the snow-clad slopes of Wolf noun
tain that morning against entrenched
Indians. a bullet cut furrow through
!: E1ver-Eatin's hair, like pair Of red
hot sheep shears" as he said.
Nov you see!" he exclaimed to
his ':pardner." IT I'd had a hat on,
it'd bin plumb ruined!"
Little is known Of Johnson's later
history. He was scout at Fort Gus
ter 1881, when the young chief Sword
Bearer tried to stir up the Crows
against the whites and secuted for
= the troops during that brief war.
: !. After that ae seems to drop out of
: history.
