I'm very surprise that yet don't exsist a thread dedicated to this great chief. I try to started one. SPOTTED WOLF (Ho'neohvovo'haestse) born in 1820 in O'mi'sis (Eaters) band of Northern Cheyenne. He married a sister of famous chief Black Kettle and also a youngest sister of famous warrior Yellow Nose. He had two sons that also became important chiefs: White Shield and White Elk. In 1867 he and Turkey Leg raided against a train near Plum Creek (Nebraska) killing many men. In 1868 he fought with honour in the battle of Beecher Island, saving any lame warriors under the enemy fire. In 1873 he visit Washington and meet President Grant. In 1876 he fought with great courage in the battle of Rosebud and LBH, where he was injured at an eye. He died in 1896. Other info? Thanks.

Spotted Wolf's father was a N. Cheyenne leader called Whistling Elk, who was also known as Spotted Wolf before he handed his name down to his son.

Does anyone know if Spotted Wolf lost an eye at LBH ? I'm not sure if it was he who lost an eye or his son . Additionally, there have seen a few pictures of Spotted Wolf posted on these message boards and I wondered if anyone could speak with certainty regarding these pictures.

Spotted Wolf reportedly lost an eye at LBH and was made a War Chief the following day.
