“Sakakawea,” Lewis and Clark Guide Killed Durifg Battle (Continueg from page 1) iusship, swearing that Charbonneau, their father was’ dead, when it is known that he *was living. ‘Wyoming Claims Dr. Grace Hebard of Wyoming, claims an old .woman, Sacajawe, of the Shoshoni tribe died at-the agency at Fort Hall in April 1884, and in- sists this is the Sakakawea. Doane Robinson, himself, joing with Major ; Welch in refuting this connection. Charles E. Stover of 'Phungerhawk, S.:D. is ‘authority for the statement that while connected With the U. 8. Indian service, he issued rations to Sakakawea at the Lomhi agency in Idaho. Stauer claims to have known her personally and asserts she died at the Fort Hall,agency in southern Idaho in 1881-82 at the age of 95. © All of these stories are but theory, according to the story of Major A. B. Welch, and his new tale concern- ing the tragic death of the historic woman is that as told him in open council by Bulls Eye, the Gros Ven- tre, who is the only known living re- lative of Sakakawea, the son of Ot- ter Woman, who was the dhughter of Charbonneau and Sakakawea, The story of Major Welch follows; “I had been invited by the three tribes on the Fort Berthold reserva- tion to make a Memorial Day address and, after the ceremonies at the graves of old U. S. scouts and A. E. F, soldiers at Shell Village of the Gros Ventres, together with Bulls Eye and about ten old men of the Gros Ventres tribe, I sat. down in the ceremonial lodge -where we were served with meat and hardtack by the woman. After we had eaten: of the food, Bulls Eye, a scout and grandson of Sakakawea told his story—the stilted sentences are typically Indian, markings too, the interpreter’s aid, Bulls Eye said: “I want to.talk ‘with you now. We have’ heard about some white men who wrote about my grandmother. Her name was Ssakakawea, These white. men came along here. about 100 years ago, They made.a mistake with the interpreter. He could not speak the Indian well .and told it \ wrong. He could not talk English either. He talked French. It ‘has been wrong ever since that time. Sakakawea was not a Shoshoni, she was Hidatsa, I tell you now.’ Heard The Story “I sensed a good story and told him I would be.glad to listen to it.” says Major Welch, “but that it was an important story and there should be many people to listen when he told it to me. If he made a mistake, he should be corrected by some man; if he forgot anything, they «should bring it to his attention. I wanted a regular council called. So “Birds Bill’ chief of the Old Scouts Society gave instruction to the village ‘her- ald, who went out -and called uround ‘the eamp circle of lodges. Soon most of the old.:men were pre- sent and Bulls Eye began ‘his story. This is the story: “(My name is Bulls Eye. I:am of the Hidatsa (Grog -Ventres) I have seen 58 winters. I was ‘a-scout at she mouth of the Yellowstone -river. { was at Fort Abraham Lincoln too, when .I was young. My father’s aame was Lean-Bull. He was Hidat- na, he was-a brave man. My moth- er’s name was Otter Woman. She was Hidatsa. “‘T was four years old when she was killed by an enemy. She died sitting up against a wagon wheel. My grandmother died of a wound in her side. “The name of my mother’s moth- er was Sakakawea. She was my grandmother. The father of my grandmother was Smoked Lodge. He was Hidatsa. He signed the ‘treaty of 1825. The mother of my grand- mother was Otter Woman. She was Hidatsa too. My grandmother Sakakawea had.a brother whose name was Cheery Necklace. He lived with our relatives, the Crows, in Mon- tana, They are sometimes called Absarakas, but ‘they are , Hidatsa. They went away from us a long time ago. My grandmother ‘had a half brother whose name was One Buffalo. Given To White Man . “<«When my grandmother. was 17 years old, her father gave her to a white man. She married: t! white man, who was my grandfather. ‘His name was Sharbonish, -He lived among the Mandans and Hidatsa then. That was at the villages of the Knife River. This white. man and Sakakawea had several children, the first one was a man child. The second was a woman ehild. They, named her Otter Woman. She .was my mother (the birthsign was given by Butls Eye here). The third child was a woman child too,.the fourth child was a woman child. They nam- ed them Cedar Woman and Different Breast. The father of all these chil- dren was Sharbonish. You. have called it a little different, but it is the same man. None of these de- scendants are alive now except my- self. They are all dead from the enemy or the sickness. “(The same year when my grand- father took Sakakawea away from the Lodge, they went far away some: where. They went toward the west and were gone for a long time and traveled far. They went so far they were among people who sometimes ‘went to the ocean out beyond there, This was on the other mountains beyond the three rivers of the Missowri. They went past these three rivers. Then they went on’ over the mountains ‘to «another river which'flowed the other way. All the rivers there" flewed ‘that a sid ‘When they came to.a:very bad r (Salmon River) they turned back. They came back to the. Knife’ river then. t ‘Knew That Country “‘So she knew that country. This was the year before that white: par- ty-came. among us. They (Lewis & Clark), stayed ‘there “that. winter! ty, (Fort Mandan). “owhen these people came. (1804) they ted ‘Sharbonish-and Saka- ‘kawea tovguide them into that sam country where she.had been: the year: SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 14, :1925 she was a’Shoshoni among us. “Shé rwasnot Shoshoni, ‘Everybody knew them. They knew her father cand mother too. “The interpreter got it -wrogg and it has been wrong ever since then, so they wrote it wrong. It is hard to interpret right. When} the interpreter gets tired Gr is not very good in ‘both Janguages, sometimes talks the easiest way. These white men were told that my grandmother knew that country well. ‘| She had been there and had traveled The inter-| across the, mountains, preter told’ them that she had a brother there. That is Indian rela- tionship. It did not ‘mean ‘that the Gros. Ventres had taken ‘her captive | trom the ‘Shoshoni. Perhaps her father, Smoked Lodge, had taken her up there on that trip too. So the interpreter and the white man thought they had captured her and brought hér back to live with the Hidatsa. We are sorry that they got it wrong. It has been. wrong ever since, : “‘They (Lewis & Clark expedition) started ‘in boats and_pulled the boats in some places. Where the banks were good they used a small mule which the whites had on the boat to pull them along ‘the ‘shore. ‘Then they would put the mule back on the boat. .They went to those three riv- ers.and there over the, mountains to the ocean. While there my grand- mother got many good shall orna- ments from that place. “When they came they were on.a large raft in the Yellowstone river. They passed through the country. of our rela- tives, the Crows. They passed a large camp of those jealous people back (1886) "| (the Crow Indians) at Sitting Bear Bill’s place. Sakakawea called out to the people and asked if her broth- er was in the camp. -She said for him'to.go on down the river beyond the next bend-and she would have the white boat,land there. They Jandéd just like she said and her brother was there. His name was Cherry Necklace, and he wanted to make her a good present there. He had*a very fine white horse, trained buffalo horse. This is a very good present and he.gave this white. horse to Sharbonish. They loaded it on the boat and brought it to our vil- lage. Sakakawea gave him some fire shell,ornaments to wear. The Crows had ‘good horses. How She Died “1 will tell you how my grand- mother Sakakawea died. My mother Otter Woman died at the same time) nearly. This place was in Montana. It was near where Glasgow is now. It wag on a creek, I think they call- ed it Sank Creek. When my grand- mother, Sakakawea ‘was married te this man Sharbonish, she had learn- ed.to like coffee terribly well. When she got out of coffee she would travel a long distance to get some more. She saved the coffee from the pots and would put it on her head so it would smell like-coffee. “During one of ‘these trips to 2 traders place to get coffee she was with two wagons with oxen hitched to them. self were in the party. I*was only four years old so do not. remember . wlio the-rest were. We were 6n this creek near Glasgow one time and camped there. There was a trader's place not many ‘miles away and we were going there to trade, “‘I was asleep on the ground be- tween the“hind wheels of the wagon by the side of my grandmother; my imother was under the front wheel, during the night time I was waken- ed by shooting; the camp was at-| taeked by some enemy; the men were firing through the wheels, “(My mother said to grandmother “take the child to the willow gulch”, so Sakakawea took-me by the arm and -we ran into the brush of the gully there. The firing of guns kept on for awhile and then quit. All the yelling had ceased. My grandmother took me out then and we went back to the wagon. It was early in the morning when we left that coulee (their shelter). I can remember it well, I have never forgotten it. “ ‘Several people lay there dead around and under the wagons. My mother was sitting up against a wheel of one of the wagons. She had been struck and was wounded there. “‘My grandmother wag also hit in the side with o bullet, but had not said anything.about that, My grand- mother did not cry any. My, mother said “Take the boy to the traders place. I am dying now. The hoy is yours to. look after now. , “ ‘She died there-against the wheel ide of the | kil then. That was the last I heard her say. But she pointed ‘to ‘her moth- er’s (Sakakawea's) side*ard signed for her:to go away. .So0 we walked over tg .hills and ;prairies to the traders:store. .Sakakawes, my grand- mother, died at the traders place from her wound 7 days after that time.” This, Major Welch believes is the ‘true story ofithe death of Sakakawea, the “bird woman” of. the Mandan and Gros: Ventres villages of 1804- 5-6, and the woman ‘who guided Lewis & Clark, It is but one of the tragic stories ‘known to all the In- dians of:those tribes. “The ‘old -woman’ of Stover; the ‘wife of Charbonneau’s’ of Luttig; the Sacajawe of Dr. ‘Hebardy—these atories may ngt be substantiated, but this story of Bulls Eye rings true. Dr. Eastman may . discover among the old men, of the Yankton- iase or Assiniboine sdme one who was a member gf the war party who \d Sakakawea. If her grave should not be found, 'I would say that the proper place of the monument’ is somewhere in the vicinity of the pre- sent Fort Clark in North ‘Dakota where -she lived. practically her life long.” 5 Major Welch cites the names of the ‘following Indians as ‘present when Bulls Eye told his story; ‘Birds -{ Bill, ‘Chief-of Old Scout Society; Dog, called George Parshal}; Stanley Bad Gun, a descendant of Four Bears, Former Gros Vent je Lewis id Ch bans Toon oad i along, call scout; ing lunte alt= ed-Thad Mason; Arthur Mandan’ son ‘Chief Bad-.Cow, who:was the son, of | 1) Searred’ Face.

A. D. McKinnon, project engineer, was called to the witness stand to explain various .methods of letting of Federal Aid Road projects, The witness said that under the system used in North Dakota, coun- ties make application for Federal Aid projects, the Highway Commis- sion provides surveys and plans which were given to the» Federal of Roads for approval, and one-half the cost paid by the county and one- half by the, government. The |High- way Commission, he said, was the in- termediary. The.actual contracts, the said, were let by the county boards of commissioners, but in one case, he said, the Highway Commis- sion refused to agree with the Bot- contract, and no contract was let. Asked About Paving Job Mr. McKinnon also was asked con, cerning plans for a paving job from the east end of Main street to b yond the -penitentiary. He said it was customary for the Highway Commission engineer at the contract letting to discuss the best bid and most responsible contractor with the county board. In this case, however, he said, there was no discussion, and the commissioners drew up a resolution to let the work to Haggart Construction Company, de- pending upon finances, before repre- sentatives of the Highway Commis- sion reachéd the meeting, the day after bids were opened. With regard to the Bottineau coun- ty job, where the Highway Commis- sion disagreed with the county board, he said, the board thought the low bidder, a South Dakota man, was not responsible, but the Highway Com- mission, after wiriig the South Da- kota Highway Commission and a South Dakota bank, concluded he was responsible. In virtually all cases the contract is let to the low bidder, he said. He explained :one oase, a bridge job, where the contract was let to the second highest bidder, by agreement between the board and the Highwa! Commission and Federal authoriti He was asked about plans for a paving project from the end of Main street, Bismarck, east beyond the penitentiary, 2,384 miles in length. He gave the various bids. He denied there was any discussion with the board as to the type of pavement to be selected, and said that no steps had been taken by the Highway Com- mission toward letting a contract be- cause funds were not available, The bid which the board of coun- ty commissioners, accepted, an asph- latic concrete base with bithulithic ‘surface, was somewhat higher than the bid on straight contract. He-said the low concrete bid with grading was $115,409.80 and with the black j base, $123,365.10. The low bidder on the black base, he said, was the Hag- gart Construction Company of Far- go. “Did the Burleigh county board , discuss with you the type of pav- | ing?” Mr. McKinnon was asked. “No,” he replied. They said the board finished look- ing over plans about 5 p. m. the day of the letting and next morning when he got to the board office the reso lution .was drawn up recommending the letting the contract, with the proviso’ that persons benefitted pay their part. He refused to give an opinion as to whether the asphaltic type or the concrete was better. He was asked concerning survey- ing. ‘He said the Highway Commis- sion let the work out to contract en- gineers, but had three parties of its own in the field last summer. ..He gave ‘the cost of the state survey work at $§0 to $60 a mile and de- clared this was the basis of the con- tract price. _. As-a Road “Bulfder ‘Pestimony taken at the various secret sessions of the special inves- tigating committee appointed to in- quire into the affairs of the State Highway Commission has been made public. Most of it is preliminary and in the nature of acquiring leads. for. future investigation. There are some interesting fea- Itures, however. The story of :Tread- well Twichell, political war horse, road-builder, farmer, former speak- er of the -House and philosopher, has some interesting side-lights. Some of the leaguers evidently .got some joy in delving into“the career of “Tread” as a road builder. That “Overhaul” ‘The “overhaul” features the con- troversy covering Cass county’s. pol- itical boss ‘relations with the high- way commission. It seems the con- tract was let for about -$65,000 in ‘the first instance, Mr. Dan Jones testified at the first seéret session. “Then when .this.was-all done,” he testified, “why Twichell .came in with a for something likes $47,- 000, claiming it to be all for oVer- bbaul, that is, they hauled clay four or five miles in some instances.” Mr. Jonés testified that ‘the 15 miles af the 10d built by Twichell cost aboyt $3,000 a mile. He testi- fied that it was his. belief that the Gass county politician got his claim ec? $47.000 by the county, state and n t’onul governments sharing. in the’ extn expense, TestimonyS was broucht out the engineering alone ‘ns neatects No. 59 and 72 cost $745. a mile. a) )O'iver Knudson of the State High- way _Commission familiar with the Richland «county project involving Twichell’s contract continues the story: “Mr. Vogel: Is it the usual and customary method for the -Highway Commission not to have a written Lewis and.
