EDITOR LEADER:— In a conversation with a party of friends about the capture of Sitting Bull, I thought it would not be amiss to relate what I know about the matter. Sitting Bull was never captured but surrendered to the military authorities at Fort Buford in the fall of 1881, and he, with his band, was taken to Fort Randall, near Yankton, South Da kota, and kept prisoners during the winter of 1881 and 1882. In the spring my boat, the W. J. Be han, which was at Sioux City, was chartered to take them to Standing Rock to locate them on the agency. There were 171 prisoners, includ ing women and children. Sitting Bull had two wives and a number of children. Among the latter was a boy about 14 years old who was captured from the Ree Indians. During the winter the soldiers had taught Sitting Bull how to write his name, and he spelled it "Seitting Bull," and he had also been taught the value of money and would charge a dollar for his autograph and he did a big busi ness. The prisoners were in charge of Lieut. Davis, of the 15th infantry. Davis had an escort of soldiers, and everywhere we landed on our way up, the young people would flock on board to get Sitting Bull to write his name in their albums. At Chamberlain and Pierce they met us by the train load. He would charge one dollar for every signature and he had lots of money. At Cheyenne agency there was a half breed by the name of Frank Chadron, who had made me a pres ent of a very fine pipe stem I showed it to Sitting Bull and he wanted to buy it, but tie it was a present I did not care to part with it finally I told the interpreter, Charley Pecot, in a joke, to tell Bull that I would take fifty dollars "for it, Bull answered, in his own 'language, that it was too much 'money. I told Cnarley to tell him that he had kept me scared for twenty years along the river watch ing for him and that he ought to allow me something for that. His reply was to tell me that he did not come on my land to scare me and if I had not come on his land I would ndt ha«e been scared. I afterward^aye the pipe stem to my friend B. B. Brownlee of Grand Tower, Illinois. He and I were working for Mr. Hitchcock, who is now Secretary of the Interior. After landing the Indians at Standing Rock we came on to Bis marck, where I sold the boat to Mr. H. R. Lyon of Mandan, and Mr. Satterlund, of Washburn. She was a good boat and they made good money with her. The boat was afterwards sunk by the ice at Bismarck. The Sioux nation is composed of different tribes. When oi band gets too big there is a certain portion of them will get together and give themselves a name and go off to themselves, as in the case of the Minneconjeaus, they succeeded from the Ui.cap^a, which was the name of Sitting Bull's band. Min neconjeaus means "the Ones that Gardens by the Rivers." The Sioux nation is composed of the following bands of Indians: Ponca, Brulle, Santee, Yanktons, Yanton nais, Uncappa, Two Kettles, Black feet, Sonzares, Minneconjeaus and Ogalla.
