Tahansi, thanks for that interesting article. That respected elderly woman sure had a lot to tell. I bet some of her life expierence have been handed down by the family and tribe and maybe are even recorded. What a treasure to learn of the old life by such elders who lived the old ways.

Idk if this is a right spot for it, but I found this article interesting because Charles A Eastman wrote about his uncle bringing home two Mandan scalps after 62, which he stated that they left every summer to attack. The Redwood Gazette April 12, 1905.

thank you for sharing this article and you most certainly posted it at the right message board. One thing I would perhaps suggest is to cite the name of the newspaper article and also the date it had appeared to allow others to cite it as a source in any further posting or even writing

Hoka hey, they crossed the border at night. but they didn't have many Mounties back then, would have been easily undetected ride. I found other narratives similar to being detained, I'm guessing it was the exiled Heroes. View AttachmentCanupawakpa-Pipestone Creek Sioux Manitoba <Oral History past down. They rode to battle for the family, many family's claim they're relative's of Unkan Sitting Bull, Ross, and Mazawasicuna families and others. My Bro Nick Wanbdiska told me that, most of Wanbdiska's men died at kildeer mountain, his family still have old maps from the old family. White eagle, along with many other great Dakota war chiefs were in exile, and remained, thought to be dead.

Wakopa, Manitoba A Well-Travelled Horse. The story is that a horse used by General Custer at the Battle of Little Bighorn, complete with saddle, was brought to the Wakopa area by Dakota warriors who were still wearing scalps of the Seventh Cavalry on their belts. www.virtualmanitoba.com/wakopa/10Stories.html

This is an interesting video about Custer shot early in the battle.
The exiled warriors Ambushed Reno and Custer, followed by a forward charge. I bet this group stayed together as one faction. In renos testimony he states it looked like a decoy when he was approaching. This was the tactics of Inkpaduta and the Dakota prophets that have been battling Wasicu long before, I'm guessing the best Shooters awaited Custer with a decoy of their own. They scattered after Custer dropped, Red Horse drew pictures of them killing them while they were running away from the warriors. the first charge. Flying hawk's statement states, they were all dead after the second charge. Red Horse also drew scalps with one bloody spear, this was meant for a symbol of Blood on his spear, or red top, red tip, what ever you want to call Inkpaduta. A settler said the Dakota warriors came there Wakopa with the 7th Calvary scalps on their belts. Red Horse did claim a Santee Warrior Killed Custer or keyapi dau. But all the warriors knew more than what they said, said enough to stay alive.
