Major Bush says substantially the same as Mato Sapa.
1858-’59.—No. I. Lone-Horn makes medicine. “At such times Indians sacrifice ponies, etc., and fast.” In this character the buffalo-head is black.
No. II. Lone-Horn, whose solitary horn appears, made buffalo medicine, probably on account of the scarcity of that animal. Again the head of an albino bison. One-Horn, doubtless the same individual, is recorded as the head chief of the Minneconjous at this date.
No. III. A Minneconjou chief, named Lone-Horn, made medicine with white buffalo-cow skin.
Lone-Horn, chief of Minneconjous, died in 1874, in his camp on the Big Cheyenne.
1859-’60.—No. I. Big-Crow killed.
No. II. Big-Crow, a Dakota chief, was killed by the Crows. The crow, transfixed by an arrow, is drawn so as to give quite the appearance of an heraldic crest.
No. III. A Minneconjou Dakota, named Big-Crow, was killed by the Crow Indians. He had received his name from killing a Crow Indian of unusual size.
Mato Sapa says: Big-Crow, a Minneconjou, was killed by Crows.
Major Bush says same as Mato Sapa.
