PANHANDLE
HERO BURIED
Body Of Billy Dixon, Indian
Fighter Moved To
New Grave

BORGER, Texas. June 27.-P-
Fifty-four years ago today a wind
bitten plainsman, who. with u
comrades, had been besieged for
two days by a band Of 700 Indians,
drew a careful bead on his long
barrelled buffalo gun and toppled a
bronzed warrior who stood outlined.
defiantly. upon a cap rock 200
away.
The remarkable accuracy Of Billy
Dixon on that day broke the spirit
Of the attacking aborigines and, III
all probability. saved the lives OF the
little band of buffalo hunters. Med
icine men had assured the Indians
they were immune from white
mems bullets. but DiXon's marks
lmanship shattered the illusion.
viii Make Shrine
Today, at the famous adobe walls
fortress, IS miles from here, inn
pressive ceremonies will mark the
interment of Dixon at the site OF
his noted achievement. The body
OF the great Indian fighter. who
died in 1918 and was buried at Tex
line. was disinterred yesterday and
escorted here by Boy Scouts Of the
local Adobe Walls camp. His tomb,
situated within the almost obliter-
ated walls of the old Fortress, is
expected TO become a shrine for
West Texans.
Prominent Masons from all over
FIRE Panhandle. many Of whom as
sisted in burial rites for Dixon is
years ago, will be present for to-
days ceremonies. Many old-time
friends and associates who credit
Dixon with having saved the south
vest for the white man. were eX-
.oected to pay tribute to his memory.
Details of the Adobe Walls fight
lave become folklore in the Pan
handle. Ii was estimated that at
least TOO Comanches, Kiowas and
Cheyennes comprised the war party
that attacked the buffalo hunters.
