Chamberla'n, Jnue 1.—"Tbe guide rode jtten at the head of the colnmn, and we found him full of information about the conutry. We began «ls.» to isteu for a new domestic disclonure every time we approached an Indian village. He was the most married of any man I ever saw, lor in every trilie be bad a wife." This was tbe reference made by Mrs. Elizabeth Custer, iu her book "Bootn and Saddles," to Felicien Fallis, wbo died a few days ago, and who was one of tbe first settlers of the vast region now embracing tbe states of North and South Dakota. In the spring of 18TU, when General Custer and the Seventh cavalry arrived at Yankton, Fallis acted as guide for tbe command until it reached tbe upper country and made its headquarters at Fort Abraham Lin coln. Fallis was one of the conspicuous arly day characters of Dakota. He was born in France and was brought to St Louis by his father when a lad of 1H. Young Fallis at 21 years of age. hired out to tne American Fur com pany,and in 1851 was among the Sioux Indians at or near Fort Grange on the inaouri river.now an abandoned post. Thus for a period of about Sfty eigbt years he resided in Dakota. From 1 Mr,7 to I860 Fallis was stationed at Fort Clark. N. D., among the Kee In dians.witb whom be negotiated for the purchase of furs for the company by which be was employed. In 1M(0 he left the Ree country and returned south, making bis home on the Lower Brule Indian reservation, about mid way between Cbamtierlain and Pierre, where he resided up to tbe time cf his peath, many rears ago having mar ried in the Sioux tribe. While acting as guide tot tbe Cus ter expedition he became intimately acquainted witb General Custer At this time Fallis bad been living in the Indian conutry over twenty years Yet he was fond of saying that General Custer's knowledge of Indians, outside of speaking their language was better than his. No large body of Indians was encounvered until tbe command reached the vicinity of Standing Kock All were well disposed. Many of the Indians met at that time were witb tbe bostiles on the Little Big Horn river three years later and aided in tbe mastiicre of General Custer and his command. Many columns could be written of interesting incidents in the life of Fallis during his residence of more than half a century among tne Sioux and other tribes.
