A WAR WOMAN, WITH the increase of population and mining operations in Montana after the discovery rind opening of the gold mines in 1862, and the construc.ion of additional military posts along the Upper Missouri, came also the increase of the boating business between the city of Saint Louis. Missouri, and Fort Benton, Montana, the last named place being the head of navigation on the Missouri river. In the years I867-8 and 1869, the tonnage of freight transported up this river was enormous, over thirty steamers being constantly employed during the season of navigation in its transportation. While the wood aloiig the timbered bends for nearly a thousand miles of the steamer's course, could he had for the chopping and taking for steam heating and other necessary purposes, yet the di.Tuulty and loss of time by the boats crew in finding dry wood within the range of the tie-up, led the owners and captains of these steamers to induce a class of men to establish woodyards at convenient distances apart along the banks bordering the channel of the stream. Each camp or yard, for the most part acting independent of the other, the price of wood being regulated by its particular location, or the kind and quality of the wood in rank. The life led by these isolated wood choppers or owners of the woodyards, was, owing to the hundreds of miles of territory roamed over by bands of hostile Indians, likened unto a guard or sentinal continually at his post. His life or his property was ever insecure. Thus it was, that during the years above mentioned, nearly or quite onethird of these men so employed lost their lives, the wood destroyed and stock run off by Indians. A party of this class of men, together with some professional hunters, wolfers and trappers, ..

Download or read book Witness written by Waggoner, Josephine and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2013-11-01 with total page 822 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¾–Josephine Waggonerês writings offer a unique perspective on the Lakota. Witness will become a widely referenced primary source. Emily Levine has meticulously examined all known collections of Waggonerês manuscripts, sometimes comparing handwritten drafts with multiple typed copies to preserve information in full. Levineês extensive notes are well chosen and informative. Witness will interest both specialist and popular audiences.”ãRaymond DeMallie, Chancellorsê Professor of Anthropology and American Indian Studies at Indiana University¾ During the 1920s and 1930s, Josephine Waggoner (1871_1943), a Lakota woman who had been educated at Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institute in Virginia, grew increasingly concerned that the history and culture of her people were being lost as elders died without passing along their knowledge. A skilled writer, Waggoner set out to record the lifeways of her people and correct much of the misinformation about them spread by white writers, journalists, and scholars of the day. To accomplish this task, she traveled to several Lakota and Dakota reservations to interview chiefs, elders, traditional tribal historians, and other tribal members, including women.¾¾ Published for the first time and augmented by extensive annotations, Witness offers a rare participantês perspective on nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Lakota and Dakota life. The first of Waggonerês two manuscripts presented here includes extraordinary firsthand and as-told-to historical stories by tribal members, such as accounts of life in the Powder River camps and at the agencies in the 1870s, the experiences of a mixed-blood HÏ?kpap?a girl at the first off-reservation boarding school, and descriptions of traditional beliefs. The second manuscript consists of Waggonerês sixty biographies of Lakota and Dakota chiefs and headmen based on eyewitness accounts and interviews with the men themselves. Together these singular manuscripts provide new and extensive information on the history, culture, and experiences of the Lakota and Dakota peoples.
