tenth anniversary of the battle by a few of

went over the field and described the man

years old, weighing over 200. He was reti

with dignity and animation. “We saw the 1

Greeks may perhaps be held responsible

ed. [One of Reno’s officers confirms this,
saying: “It was probably during this in
terval of quiet on Reno’s part that the
Indians massed on Custer and annihilated
him.’’] The Indians ran out of ammuni
tion and then used arrows. They fired
from behind their horses. The soldiers
got shells stuck in their guns, and bad to
throw them a.way. They then fought
with their guns pistols■. The Indians
were in couples behind and in front of
Custer, as lie moved up the Ridge
to take a position, ana were just
as many jus the grass. The first two com
panies. Keogh’s and Calhoun’s, dismounted
and fought on foot. They never broke,
hut retired step by step until forced back
to the ridge, upon which nil finally perish
ed. They were shot down in line where
they stood. Keogh’s company rallied and
were all killed in a bunch. [This state
ment seems to In* borne out bv the facts, as
thirty-eight bodii s of Keogh s troops were
found piled in a heap.] The warriors di
rected a special fire against the troopers
who held the horses while the others
fought. As soon as Holder was killed, by
the waving of blankets and great shouting,
the horses were stampeded, which made it
impossible for the soldiers to
escape afterward. The soldiers
fought desperately and hard, and
never surrendered; they fought in the line
along the ridge. As fast as men fell the
horses were headed and driven toward the
squaws and old men, who gathered them
up. When Reno attempted to find Custer
by throwing out a skirmish line, Custer
and all with him were dead. When the
skirmishers reached the high point over
looking Custer's field, the Indians were
galloping around and over the wounded
and dying and dead, popping bullets and
arrows into them. When Reno made his
attack on the upper end lie killed my two
squaws and three children, which made
my heart sad. I then fought
with the hatchet (which means
of course, mutilating the soldiers..
The soldiers ran out of ammunition early
inthe day. Their supplies of cartridges
were in the saddles of their stampeded
horses. The Indians then ran up to the
soldiers and butchered them with hatchets.
A lot of horses ran away and jumped into
the river, but were caught by the squaws.
Only forty-three Indians were killed alto
gether, but a great many wounded outs
came across the river" and died in
the bushes. We had Ogallailas. Minsemi-
jous; Rrule, Teton, and ITicupapu Sioux;
Cheyennes, Arupuhoes and (irosventres.
When the big mist came in the air down
the river [meaning 'Perry and (ribbon] we
struck our lodges and went up a cn ek
toward the White Rain mountains. The
Big Horn ranges were covered with snow.
We waited there tour. days and then went
over to the Woj mountains.’’
it has been popularly supposed tint Cus

case. There were no eeiemoiiies or exer

“Do vou know,” said a prominent St.
Patti divine tile other day, "what makes
the reputation of a minister ? It is not liis
sermons, lint the way in which lie builds
up a church. Whenever a man has large
congregations he becomes known. Now.
as a rule, this is done by let’ work. I mean
that the majority of ministers who build
up a church do it by personal solicitation.
There are very few men whose sermons
