Jim), 102, have come forward with
the astonishing news that Black Jim
is not dead.
Jim lapsed into state of coma last
week after having been kicked in the
head by wild horse and it was
thought by tribesmen that life was
extinct. Word was sent out to white
residents that Jim was dead and
preparations were made for his burial
Sunday. Just prior to the time set
for his funeral, Jim revived and is
now able to sit up in his tepee and
partake of food. His favorite boast
of late years has been that he was
going to live forever.
