SCENES OF 40 YEARS
AGO RE-ENACTED AT
PLEVNA, MONT.
The Killing of a Mail Carrier By In
dians Dramatized Realistically on
Exact Spot of Tragedy.
SEN. GEO INCOME OF
DAWSON LOCATES GRAVE

Fallon County Times: The pageant
given at Dead Mans Butte near Plev-
ma Wednesday afternoon was one eff
the most successful events ever given
in Fallon County. A large crowd of
Fallon County citizens attended and
witnessed the re-enacting of the
scene that took place forty-four years
ago.
INDIANS
SWEEP DOWN
The Indians sweeping down upon
the lone mail carrier was SO very well
acted that it took but little magma
ton to make it real. The killing, and
the riAing of the mail sacks and the
stealing Of the horses by the Indians
was most life like. The mail driver
fell in the exact spot where the orig
inal tragedy occurred. This spot was
marked by a few stones and the orig
inal uncovered bones Of the man who
was actually killed.

BURYS BODY
It was at this place that the now
State Senator George McCone of
Dawson County found the victim, fer
ty-four years ago. Bringing his mind
back to the time when he was in the
mail service and was one of the two
scouts sent out to find the body, Sen.
McCone again sat in the saddle and
win his rife in his arm rode along the
flats and among the hills looking fol
the missing man. According to his
story, he and another scout rode from
their camp on the Little Missouri

Ion Creek near Terry, not finding any
clue they roade back over the trai
