Ctoriies of
GREAT
INDIANS
CHIEF N-THE-FACE GOT
UNDESERVED FAME
Bv ELMO SCOTT WATSON

WITH the possible exception OF
w Sitting Bull and Curley, Custer
Grow scout. more transformation has
been written about Rain-In-The-Face
| Utiomagaju) chief OF the Hunkpapas
than any other Indian who ever lived.
When he died September II, 1909, the
word was flashed all over the country
that the Indian who killed General
Custer is dead"
During the Stanley expedition up
the Yellowstone in 1873, Raln-in-The-
Face murdered two civilians who had
strayed from Clusters command. a
crime for which he was arrested by
Capt. Tom Custer year later and
imprisoned at Fort Abraham Lincoln,
n. -. He escaped and after joining
the hosties under Sitting Bull he Is
said to have sent word back to the
fort that he would have his revenge
on the whole Custer family and on
Captain Tom in particular.
Out of this threat grew the story
| that Rain-In-TheFace after the battle
Of Little Big Horn had cut out Tom
| Clusters heart and eaten piece of 1t.
| Mrs. Custer in her book Boots and
| Saddles mikes such an assertion, but
| Rain-In-The-Face In telling his life
| story to Dr. Charles A. Eastman, the
| noted Sioux writer, denied any such
| that the Hunkpapa warrior would tell
| member of his own race the truth.
More than that. DIR. Porter and Gen
eral Benteen who found Tom Gus
ters body after the battle, have stated
positively that he was not mutilated
in this way.
| In Longfellow's poem 1.-THE Revenge
OF in-In-The-Face." he repeats the
| story, although he makes Gen. George
| Custer the victim of the atrocity In
stead OF Tom Custer. This may be the
origin Of the yarn that Rain-In-The-
Face was the slayer Of Custer.
The circumstances connected with
his killing the two civilians from Gus
ruthless. savage warrior. His bold at.
tack on Fort Totten, N. D., In 1885
with two companions. an act OF sheer
bravndo growing out Of dare and
his endurance Of the worst tortures OF
the Sun Dance without a murmuI
proved that he was a man utterly In
different TO pain. danger or death.
| After the Sioux wars were over
Rain-In-T he-Face settled on the Stand
ing Rock reservation and in 1885 ap
piled for admission to the Hampton
school, an effort which inspired q
second poem about him-this time
from the pen of another great Ameri.
can poet, John G. Whittier. On the
reservation Rain-In-T heFace became
an Indian policeman.
