DAILY ENQUIRER • SUN: COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE 29, 1886. THE CUSTER MASSACRE. Tenth Annhi'P.ar) of Hit lit. the t'fleliiateil Indian r'« Kail. St. PaI'I.. .June 25. A sperinl to the Pioneer Press from luster Battlefield. Montana, describes the celebration of tlio tenth anniversary of the battle by a few of its survivors. The ({rent Sinus C hief Hall went over the field and described the man ner in which Custer's coni maud was de stroyed. Gall is a fine looking Indian, IK years old, weighing over 200. He was reti cent at first, but finally he told_ his story with dignity and animation. “We saw the 1 soldiers early in the morning crossing the Divide. Syrians. There will be lota of fun for the future archaeologists. There is a station on one of the railroads, and a town with a church, a saloon and the usual camp fol lowers of civilization. which bears the eu phonious name of Eltopia. The ancient Greeks may perhaps be held responsible for this in the future, but the plain fact is that a congregation and a minister wan dered out to that place and found it nil too inconvenient to address their religious re ports from n place bearing the name given to it bv the miners of “Hell the nvLA^aonsr Fire Insurance Company OK MAKO.V GKOItOIA. to Pay,’ hey changed it to Eltopia.

[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 ter entered the river, but such was not tht case.
