lance in Montana. He came to this
state many years ago after having
served an apprenticeship on Baltimore
newspapers. In Helena he founded
the Montana Stockman and Farmer,
one Of the states first agricultural and
livestock journals, and later and for
many years was city editor, then edi-
tor of the Helena Independent. He
afterwards became editor of the Mon
tana Record-Herald Of Helena, which
position he left to become state COM
missioner of agriculture, where he eff
fected a reorganization of the depart
ment that placed it in the forefront of
similar departments in the northwest.
Ten years ago he became development
agent for the Great Northern in Mon
tana. During that time he has been
responsible for bringing hundreds of
new settlers to Montana lands and it is
a matter of record that no section, the
development Of which he has sponsor
ed, but has proved to be all that its
residents could have expected.

inson, of the l4th Infantry, Corporal
Coleman, Company K, second cavalry,
were surrounded by 40 Indians near
the saw mill, 10 miles from Fort Lar
annie, and there murdered. Louis Ga
gnon was killed by Indians on Warm
Spring creek, February 5, 1874. Frank
A. T%erreault was killed by the Sioux
at Cone Butte, in March, 1874. Ter
reault was better known as the little
deaf Frenchman. John Rock was
murdered at the mouth of Sun river
by a band of 10 Indians, supposed to be
Piegans, March 30, 1874, while his
brother, James Rock, escaped.
James Hildebrand was killed by In
dams about l6 miles south of the Grow
agency, July 81, 1875. His was the first
interment at the agency.
James Hughes was killed by Indians
July 5 or 6, 1875, at Quinn's ranch. On
the 22nd of September, 1875, Jack AL
Ian, James Nolan and Will Campbell
were killed by the Kootenai Indians
20 miles from Scribner. Early in 1875,
soon after C~ountryman's store was op-
ened, Hugh Hoppy, who operated the
hotel at Benson's landing, sent his men
down to build a house suitable for his
business. They met a small white mar
| and a most eccentric one, whom they
would not allow to proceed, but sent
him to the agency. He stayed one week
there when he disappeared. The Grows
found this crazy man dead at the
mouth Of Clark's Fork two months lat
er.
In July, 1875, a squad of men with OK
teams moved to a. camp about 10 miles
down the Saltwater, to get out logs
for the agency. About two weeks later
after their arrival here, a party of In
dams came onto Mexican Joe, who was
herding the cattle about a mile from
the camp, and killed him. The firing
was plainly heard by White Calfee
who was in camp but he being alone
could do nothing but saddle his horse
and ave himself by going to the
agency. The body of the herder wa.
found the next day lying in the creek
thrown there it is supposed by the In.
dams
About the first of October, 1875

Just after he disappeared in the hill

volley, which was fired from close
quarters.
At Fort Pease a large number of wolf
skins we're being brought in daily and
it bid fair to be a prosperous season
for the trappers, till near the middle
of December, 1875, when the Uncapapa
Indians again came in strong force.
The first sign of their presence vas
shown on the 10th day of December,
1875, when they attacked Topping &
Co., on the Big Horn and fought them
for seven hours. On the morning of
the 18th of December, 1875, Grin Ma
son, Jeff Thompson and Billy Castro
left Bakers battle-ground, for the Big
Horn river, to take part in the win
ter's wolfing. They had their riding
and five pack horses with provisions,
ammunition, etc. Their intention was
to go to Topping's camp, but not know
ing it's exact location, they went too
high up and came in sight of this river
about ten miles above its mouth. AS
they came to the edge Of it's bottom
about 100 Indians came dashing from
the cOulee on each side and in front
They saw at once that all they had tc
hope for was to save themselves, sc
they left their horses and ran to 6
little waShout near by and from it free
at every Indian that showed his head
About fifteen minutes after the figh'
commenced, Grin Mason, while raising
his head to take aim at an Indian wa
hit in the forehead by a bullet anc
instantly killed.
Next weeks story will be a continu-
alton of the Indian depredations in
Montana, and some Of the brutal
killings.
