| 6 THE OMAHA DAILY BEE:-M(C e —————————————————————————————————————————————————————— JUST LIKE A DIME NOVEL. How One Man Had an Irdian War All to Himself, TERROR FELL ON THE CHEYENNES. They Killed Four of His Family, but He Slew Over One Hune dred and Fifty of Th In June, 1862, a man named Saunder- gon packed lis family and afew house- hold goods into a wigon and headed due west from Omaha to find a location to please him somewhere along the Platte, By in the San Franci aminer, had with him his wife, a boy fourteen years of age, a girl of ten, and a boy of twelve whom he had picked up and adopted, At the date named one passed into the Indinn country very quickly from any point on the upper Missourl, The lone emigrant family kept going and going, avoiding the Indians by some strange luck, and finally brought up on the Loup Fork of the Platte of the then territory of Nebraska. The family were tiving in a wagon placed near asmall clump of trees, while a hut was being built fora por- manent residence, Onenight the horses broke away and in the morning Saun- derson started out to them, They led hima chase of nineor ten miles, end, owing to his losing his way, it was mid-afternoon before he returned, says a writer in tho Now Yor': Sun. An awful discovery awaited him. Indians had attacked the camp, and every mem- ber of his family had been killed and The buzzards wore gathering wrived. When he had buried the bodies he took a solemn oath to de- vote the rest of his life to how that h was k history to many of the Indian and scouts, Luckily for Saunderson he was soon Joined by a strong party of hunters who were bound for the Laramie mountains, and he was with them for thy weeks before reaching k Laram y gave him all the pointers on Indis they could, and when he had t about his arnament consisted of a hc rifle, two Colt’s revol and a hunting knife. T was then ched to the fort as a scout, and whenI found that no argument could move him from his pu pose 1 gave him all aid and advice got him a suit of buckskin, helped him to mold 500 bullets, furnished him with a reliable compass and rode with him for two days to the south, into the Cheycnne country, This tribe had done him no wre but it was hostile, and one Indian the same as another, 1 found the man moody and uncommuni- cative, but | knew the torture he was cuse his demeanor., a8 three months before he returned to the fort, and he then had the sealps of twenty-one Indians to prove that he had not n wasting tin 1o wus in a more cheerful mood now, and I managed to secure the particulars of some of his adventures, Soon after I left him he discovered the trail of a village on the move. This he followed until he found the Indians on a creek in a long and narrow valley. He hid his horse and spare baggago . in & cave, and prow fea away in search of prey. The herd of ponies was pastured above the village, and the white man’s first victi an who was act- He was dig- ging roots with a stick when Saunder- son crept up to him and hit him such a blow with a club that he fell down dead He carried the body half a mile on his back and dumped it into a_dark ravine, but not till after he had secured the scalp lock. He then made a half ¢ 10 tho other end of the valley whe found a boy herder about sixteen old lying at full length on the asleep. This tribe of Indians had no more fear of the presence of a white man there than of an elephant. Only the warriors had ever seen one, unless it WS some poor prisoner brought in to be tortured, Saunderson crawled upon the sleeping sentinel and killed him with a stone and his body was carried to the same ravine, The two Indians were killed before noon. The ponies fed to the south, and it was not until they were a long way up the vulloy that anyone in camp took the alarm. Then four or five squaws and boys started out to turn the herd buck viver, nur the cen- recover fighters i of the thickets along the foot- The Indians scattered consider- ably in surrounding the herd,which was now full of ic, and a8 the white man forward through a dense , across which wild game had made a beaten path ho suddenly came face to face with a squaw. On the impulse of the moment and scarce realizing what he did, he struck her with hisfist. The boy probably broke her jaw, ns she did out. She was knocked down ambled up and made a deter mined attack on her foe. She had no weapons of any sort, but sho seized Saunderson and” downed him and got such agripon his throat that he bad to exert all his strength to break it. He flung her off and in wrn got the sume grip, but she bit and clawed him in fm-: vious manner and when he had choked the life out of her she still had her fingers in his hair, This body went to keep company with the others, and then Saunderson” with- drew to a safer position. The myster- fous disappearance of three peopld from the village kicked upa great excitement before evening, but although a hundred Indians scatteved about to search for them they found no clew to the mystery. Next day Suundorson secured the sealp of a warrior and then left the neighbor- hood. During the next month he lived among the foothills of the Laramie mountains and among his stirring ad- ventures he relates this. He was stalking a deer and was in the act of leveling his rifle toshoot, when he espied six Indians advancing along a trail. A moment later one of them shot the same deer and the party at once pro- ceeded to build a fire and cook a portion of the meat, They were all full grown men, but felt so sufe in their own te tory that no precautions were take Every riffo in the party was placed against a central treo, fiftoen feet from the fire and as the Indians toasted their meat they sang, laughed and joked each other, liké so many boys. Saunderson had cover to the tree spoken of, or with- in a fow feet of it, and when the redskins Rot to eating he erept forward and got position behind a large rock. He was above them, with the tree at his left. The largest Indian in the party sat fac- ing him- and Saunderson shot him stone dead. He had his revolvers out before any of the Indimms were on their feet, and as they sprang up he killed a second to secure their guns, and the avenger saw no more of them. He sealped the de ked the rifles and started off to look for other victims. If I had had the slightest doubt of the truth of this ad- venture a queer turn of affairs would have more than satisfied i When Saund same into the fort and snow had alrendy fallen, He announced his in- tention of lying up somewhere along the south fork of the Laramie for the wine s s the raiding season of the hos- wout over 1 got leave of abe ixty days and decided to re- My mission was to pros nd silyver among the moun- nd eauipped it was late in sence for turn with h pect for gold tains, but I was wellarmed and on this trip we took our thirty steel traps to capture fur.

He found some squaws and boys gathering wood in the foothills, and_he killed and scalped a squaw and o boy of sixtes An alarm was raised and he retreated toa strong position, und ina fight ut long range he killed a"warrior, but could not secure his sealp, When night treated, buta light snow fell and the Indinns pressed him closely.

At noon on the third day of his absen camo the avenger re- heard rifle fiving to the west of me, and on going forward Iwas led to beiieve of five or six white men led on the crest of a rocky 'd_until I could Indian, and a . numbering about_thirty, broke away in o puni Then T found that § son had killed one, wounded two, been holding his own with the spare rifles, 3y January, 1863, Saunderson had thirty-nine Indian scalps, During all that year he came into the fort but onc In Januavy, 1864, his sealps numbe over sevenly.

[ heard of his doing through half-breeds and trapper: same and went like a shadow. Sometimes he left a trail, but ifit was followed one or more of his pursuers would be killed. He killed old and young and knew no mercy. Parties were made up to hunt him down, but they could not find him, mas he got the reputation of be-, white spirit” his work was easier 43 there was noardor in the pursuit of him. The Cheyennes felt themselves accursed, and two or three different medicine men who tried tocharm the spritand failed were banished or put to death, The greatest slaughter Saunderson ever inflicted at one time was on a band of a sub-chief called “Swift Horse. This was in July, 1864 A camp of about sixty lodges was driven out of a valley inthe Laramie mountains by a cloudburst. Everybody and everything had to run_ before the coming flood for aboutone mile, when people and ponies defleeted to the left and found su(] y in agorge. The 1s of this was almost pendicular, and thewr crests covered with shrubbery. While penned in here Saunderson opened fire on them from tho 1d also rolled great rocks upon their heads. Many of the Indians were unarmed, and those who had their rifles could not use them against him, They reported that he had killed twelve peo- ple and injured many others. I after- wards met with a Cheyenne whose left shouider was badly “lopped,” and he told me that it was crushed byone of the stones flung into the gorge that duy. Saunderson had now become su a terror that the tribe, instead of splitting up into five or six bands, consolidated into one for protection, and alarge num- ber of young men were always scouting and on guard. If a war party left the village it was dogged and harassed, or avenger took advantageto attack > night in the spring of party of sixty-four snnes were camped on the Novth Ik of the Platte, in Nebrask aun- derson got mong their horses during a furious snow squall and killed twenty- eight of them with his knife. One of the guards who was called **Bear on the " whom 1 saw at Fort Laramie dur- truce, ran upon the white man as he was doing his work and was killed and scalped. ~ The war party at once re- turned home. On July 15,1865, Saunderson appeared at the fort for the last time. He had an an pony, and brought in five Indian and fourteen scalps. He had at this time upward of one hundred scalps and had killed ut least 140 Indiands and sfxty or seventy ponics. He was in the best of health, but wanted a new suit of buckskin and o supply of ammunition, He had no idea of abundoning his quest for revenge, but on the contrary, was more determined than ever. He re- mained with us eight days, and then left the fort one midnight, saying he should ‘obably come in again aboutthe first of November., He was not seen or heard of again by any white man, nor yet any of the Indian What his fate was no one will ever v. Had he fallen into the hands of the red men they would have boasted of it, and had any ‘white man en- countered him, word would have been passed along to us, It is likely that he met some fatal accident in the moun- tains, party I shall bring hundred.” ot - The druggists of this citysell the most su cessful preparation that has yet been pr duced for conghs, colds aud croup.

HIS GHOST MADE A WILL, A Lawger Made an Innocent Partner to a Testamentary Fraud, WASN'T LEGAL BUT ENDED ALL RIGHT, When Did O1d Mr. Busch Die, and Did His Beard Grow After Death — Clever Ruse of His Nephew. “The first will I eve ghost,” says a writer i the Boston Globe, “Ihad just received news that Mr. Busch, a wealthy old gentleman, y when in he walked.” ***Can you make me a short will that will stand?’ he asked in a husky voice, 1, I said, vant to leave everything I possess to Allen Busch, my sister Ada's only ehild. Go to work, for I must re- turn to the house,” sinking into a chair, “Idon’t want my other nephew, Potter, to have a cent.” I hurried through the will and then called in my neghbor, the barber, and his apprentice, to witness it. They signed with trembling fingers, for they haa heaad the news, too, of theold man's death. I watched him go across the fields to his house, not far behind. The porch lay white in the moonlight, and, as the old man was about to open the door, someone pulled it from the in- side and out walked Potter, with a grin upon his weazen face, It changedas he suw the old man to alook of abject ter- ror. He shrunk aside, clasped both hands over his eyes, uttered a terrible made was for a cry and flow down the path, stumbling in'his confusion and falling flat upon his 1 iooked back He was fuce again gone, The next morning we all 1 news, Old Mr. Busch had b last at 7 o'clock. 1 confess [ wus startled, but that was no ghostly arm that leaned on mine when 1walked upthe path with Mr. Busch the night before, and I could not agree with my neighbor, the hair dresser,who declared that it might have been an “‘appearance.” Lawyer Thursby had a will in his keeping that left everything to Potter, but the date of mine was its safeguard. They tried to vrove the old gentleman of unsound mind, but were m laughed at. My neighbor, confessi that he was not sure but that Mr, Busch’s ghost made the will that he signed, but swearing to the nightcap and dressing gown us facts in silk and linen, caused much laughter, butthe property went to the nepliew. He was generous, and made o prosent to Potter which prevented him from suffering anything, and he wasa better heir to the old man’s property than Pot- ter would have been. He' made me legal manager of his estate, und we be- cume great friends.

He never married, The day before ho passed away he sent for me.
