Read about the most controversial Sioux Indian who was the first to kill white western  frontier settlers five years before the Sioux slaughtered 400 settlers during the Civil War and who, in five battles in North Dakota frustrated Generals Sibley and Sully sent to punish the Sioux with the largest army ever sent by the U.S. against Indians.
