422 ON THE BORDER WITH CROOK.good he has looked for ; death, and it has come/ The body wasdelivered to his friends the morning after his death. 'CrazyHorse ' and his friends were assured that no harm was intendedhim,, and the chiefs who were with him are satisfied that nonewas intended ;his death resulted from his own violence. Theleading men of his band, ' Big Road,' 'Jumping Shield/ and' Little Big Man/ are satisfied that his death is the result of hisown folly,and they are on friendly terms with us."The chiefs spoken of in General Bradley's telegram as accompanying " Crazy Horse" were: "Touch the Clouds," "SwiftBear," and "High Bear." All accounts agree in stating that" Crazy Horse " suddenly drew two knives, and with one in eachhand started to run amuck among the officers and soldiers."Little Big Man," seeing what he had done, jumped upon" Crazy Horse's" back and seized his arms at the elbows, receiving two slight cuts in the wrists while holding his hands down.Here, there is a discrepancy: some say that the death woundof "Crazy Horse" was given by the sentinel at the door of theguard-house, who prodded him in the abdomen with his bayonetin return for the thrust with a knife made by" Crazy Horso ";others affirm that " Little Big Man," while holding down " CrazyHorse's" hands, deflected the latter's own poniard and inflictedthe gash which resulted in death. Billy Hunter, whose statement was written out for me by Lieutenant George A. Dodd,Third Cavalry, is one of the strongest witnesses on the first side,but " Little Big Man" himself assured me at the Sun Dance in1881 that he had unintentionally killed " Crazy Horse " withthe latter's own weapon, which was shaped at the end like a bayonet (stiletto), and made the very same kind of a wound. He described how he jumped on " Crazy Horse's " back and seized hisarms at the elbow, and showed how he himself had received twowounds in the left wrist ;after that, in the struggle, the stilettoof the captive was inclined in such a manner that when he stillstruggled he cut himself in the abdomen instead of harming theone who held him in his grasp. "Little Big Man" furtherassured me that at first it was thought best to let the idea prevailthat a soldier had done the killing, and thus reduce the probability of any one of the dead man's relatives revenging his takingoff after the manner of the aborigines. The bayonet-thrust madeby the soldier was received by the door of the guard-house, where
THE GRAVE OF "CRAZY HORSE." 423" Little Big Man " said it could still be seen. I give both stories,although I incline strongly to believe " Little Big Man."" Crazy Horse" was one of the great soldiers of his day andgeneration ;he never could be the friend *of the whites, becausehe was too bold and warlike in his nature ;he had a great admiration for Crook, which was reciprocated ;once he said ofCrook that he was more to be feared by the Sioux than all otherwhite men. As the grave of Custer marked high-water mark ofSioux supremacy in the trans-Missouri region, so the grave of" Crazy Horse," a plain fence of pine slabs, marked the ebb.
