Title: Major Reno vindicated
First published: 1935
Description: FOR more than fifty-five years—ever since I was old enough to read and form an intelligent opinion on; any subject—I have been a most interested student of the celebrated battle of the Little Big Horn. I believe I have read everything that has ever been printed on the subject, including all the government reports; I have talked with several of the men and officers who fought in the Seventh Cavalry those 25th and 26th days of June, 1876, on the Little Big Horn, and many of the Sioux who battled against them; I have been over the entire battlefield several times; have photographed everything pertaining to the lay of the land where the three separate and distinct engagements occurred on the days mentioned. I have the complete report of the Reno Court of Inquiry held at Chicago in 1879, which gives the questions and answers to and from every witness who testified; I have letters galore written by Captain Benteen, Col. Varnum, General Godfrey and Mrs. Custer, as well as from enlisted men of the Seventh Cavalry, and I have written and published many articles myself, in book and pamphlet form, pertaining to "Custer's last fight.
