Goes a little, they continue this hunt, and then back to the book, a deer jumped out and stood looking at us. The first shot from my rifle brought it down. We rushed it and cut its throat. We hurly cut open the body and jammed our hands inside to get warm. | <0>147<0>313<0>1118<0>484<0>2001<0>479<0>618<0>599<0>2103<0>4055<0>1832<0>3008<0>3615<0>2633<0>3002<0>3215<0>1668<0>2971<0>374<0>366<0>2142<0>1274<0>3973<0>2492<0>3003<0>1108<0>2631<0>374<0>3823<0>1463<0>355<0>2760<0>2672<0>2544<0>3691<0>2750<0>469<0>3522<0>1139<0>2410<0>190<0>1865<0>275<0>2666<0>2787<0>275<0>1715<0>17... |
The Shoshones, the Crows, and the Pawnees were tribes we fought most during my time of growing up to manhood. So this is another thing that he talks about a lot in this book is that the | <0>2072<0>1719<0>1719<0>932<0>716<0>884<0>31<0>2635<0>1100<0>2928<0>2087<0>3678<0>3391<0>1129<0>275<0>2133<0>915<0>1715<0>575<0>1718<0>1231<0>1819<0>1569<0>2801<0>2328<0>3280<0>307<0>3240<0>3122<0>1458<0>1129<0>2013<0>1085<0>756<0>3002<0>1517<0>2511<0>3894<0>2374<0>770<0>3150<0>126<0>2336<0>1520<0>1950<0>2492<0>1989<0>... |
The, the Native Americans were fighting each other all the time. They were at war. They were at war with each other. And he talks about that a lot. | <0>1989<0>2492<0>1376<0>3693<0>2027<0>122<0>2135<0>871<0>908<0>2027<0>3267<0>2251<0>2840<0>3015<0>1175<0>3556<0>3909<0>3899<0>2248<0>1564<0>2813<0>3678<0>176<0>3984<0>3185<0>2619<0>3720<0>3349<0>379<0>3488<0>3839<0>1719<0>3349<0>2860<0>641<0>3160<0>2094<0>2336<0>2034<0>1867<0>1913<0>1021<0>2205<0>2205<0>3967<0>2617<0>2... |
Back to the book, my own youthful warrior experiences were mostly in combat against the Crows and the Shoshonis. | <0>1872<0>2735<0>2666<0>915<0>2348<0>2523<0>262<0>1190<0>2750<0>3217<0>2633<0>1022<0>2060<0>374<0>527<0>527<0>189<0>2750<0>573<0>3213<0>1719<0>3038<0>949<0>1175<0>2030<0>495<0>2707<0>262<0>2619<0>11<0>1715<0>3215<0>37<0>2813<0>4075<0>1265<0>2585<0>2475<0>1832<0>1467<0>2327<0>827<0>275<0>262<0>11<0>1715<0>2806<0>3427<0>... |
One incident out of many in this kind of warfare will show you how it was carried on. A band of Shoshones came at night and stole some of our horses. We were camped on a divide between the upper part of the Tung River and the Little Big Horn. | <0>3435<0>21<0>3374<0>3002<0>2733<0>2442<0>3998<0>1937<0>691<0>1569<0>235<0>1982<0>2542<0>1832<0>1100<0>3376<0>3522<0>3374<0>1341<0>363<0>2082<0>2133<0>3596<0>1954<0>1569<0>2374<0>2133<0>3435<0>3240<0>1998<0>1139<0>2348<0>218<0>1666<0>75<0>1491<0>915<0>2197<0>2119<0>1687<0>3122<0>1762<0>915<0>2705<0>2136<0>2383<0>3146<... |
Snow deep and winter weather. I was 16 years old. I went with a party of Cheyenne's who took the trail of the thieves. | <0>1517<0>1715<0>596<0>932<0>2500<0>963<0>3875<0>3376<0>87<0>983<0>87<0>1950<0>2631<0>817<0>1558<0>3528<0>1323<0>3830<0>2880<0>3435<0>2142<0>1094<0>3662<0>3492<0>4066<0>3967<0>3967<0>3610<0>3167<0>3590<0>2460<0>3152<0>313<0>3002<0>1715<0>2785<0>1152<0>2309<0>3522<0>3522<0>3376<0>2659<0>3791<0>1032<0>453<0>406<0>1255<0>... |
After traveling all day and into the night, we found a small camp of Shoshones. Most of them, alarmed by their dogs, had fled when we made our attack upon them. | <0>3722<0>644<0>2374<0>2659<0>2348<0>3635<0>1334<0>2082<0>2787<0>259<0>2659<0>1743<0>1659<0>2474<0>2707<0>2072<0>3110<0>1100<0>939<0>2177<0>2475<0>983<0>3582<0>346<0>2082<0>3126<0>1858<0>864<0>2999<0>3691<0>974<0>3407<0>1517<0>1517<0>1113<0>2946<0>1990<0>988<0>2309<0>1638<0>1812<0>122<0>3427<0>355<0>3238<0>3427<0>3122<... |
Was than I was, and yet living as my neighbor on Tong River was the brave warrior who dealt the final blow to that Shoshone. | <0>3435<0>189<0>932<0>2585<0>2030<0>374<0>878<0>1687<0>691<0>2619<0>1575<0>3871<0>1517<0>2666<0>3838<0>2733<0>1318<0>3158<0>4080<0>2805<0>1668<0>1816<0>2542<0>1564<0>2741<0>3407<0>3678<0>2542<0>3376<0>1372<0>1084<0>1569<0>2148<0>144<0>2885<0>2542<0>3445<0>2133<0>3122<0>1575<0>2349<0>3153<0>3541<0>2072<0>2142<0>3374<0>3... |
White Wolf crept along the ground into the lodge. He had in his right hand a sick shooter. It was totally dark in there and he fumbled about the interior seeking whomever he might find. His gun bumped into somebody and he pulled the trigger. | <0>1518<0>1564<0>2575<0>3828<0>1014<0>3480<0>2284<0>653<0>707<0>4066<0>4058<0>2492<0>1025<0>1498<0>2142<0>943<0>775<0>974<0>1990<0>1990<0>1990<0>462<0>2824<0>1376<0>1071<0>1878<0>3347<0>4046<0>2082<0>2832<0>1990<0>2904<0>3312<0>1655<0>1465<0>3522<0>2577<0>2133<0>1878<0>1990<0>1084<0>1084<0>4042<0>1697<0>1139<0>3365<0>1... |
Later developments re-revealed this was the only occupant of the lodge. The victim was an old man. He was the only Shoshone we killed in that fight, so far as we could learn. But we won the battle and got back on our horses. | <0>3691<0>2935<0>1351<0>2377<0>313<0>1116<0>484<0>1874<0>1696<0>2889<0>3828<0>638<0>638<0>1175<0>3087<0>1406<0>638<0>3875<0>173<0>1175<0>1175<0>2880<0>3240<0>1812<0>2228<0>1793<0>1942<0>2579<0>1400<0>782<0>190<0>218<0>3207<0>1351<0>3457<0>2049<0>3341<0>1687<0>2328<0>191<0>570<0>1021<0>366<0>3528<0>3240<0>1990<0>3130<0>... |
We cut up the body of the old Shoshone man. We cut off his hands, his feet, his head. We ripped open his breast and belly. I stood there and looked at his heart and liver. | <0>3894<0>2840<0>1625<0>1084<0>275<0>2142<0>2044<0>3828<0>158<0>1518<0>898<0>3374<0>1465<0>229<0>3462<0>1265<0>2774<0>3691<0>3059<0>1273<0>3823<0>79<0>1770<0>1113<0>720<0>1790<0>3437<0>1240<0>2230<0>3307<0>1335<0>353<0>3003<0>1109<0>120<0>1409<0>413<0>275<0>3650<0>2488<0>2142<0>3535<0>2881<0>3376<0>2881<0>4046<0>1517<0... |
We tore down the lodge, built a bonfire of its contents, and piled the remnants of the dead body upon this bonfire. We stayed there until nothing was left but ashes and coals. | <0>990<0>1491<0>1693<0>2577<0>1990<0>2133<0>2082<0>2001<0>1113<0>2946<0>1990<0>1116<0>898<0>1116<0>511<0>78<0>2328<0>2790<0>1942<0>2072<0>2075<0>932<0>2516<0>2799<0>3222<0>3782<0>484<0>4046<0>2374<0>2471<0>2970<0>2001<0>275<0>1265<0>1198<0>2183<0>1569<0>1736<0>3691<0>1696<0>154<0>1517<0>2824<0>2629<0>691<0>413<0>1990<0... |
They're definitely, and what's really cool is like, uhm, I didn't want to break up this, but, you know, you've got an assault happening. You've got an assault happening. This is the same, this could be a, this could be a story about, you know, American soldiers going against | <0>3861<0>1775<0>3116<0>3373<0>969<0>190<0>2488<0>2703<0>3823<0>478<0>3787<0>3787<0>2383<0>3828<0>2579<0>1112<0>3723<0>2935<0>1764<0>189<0>2142<0>1118<0>1865<0>2851<0>3678<0>436<0>3789<0>3590<0>2554<0>3946<0>2616<0>1687<0>2765<0>543<0>329<0>869<0>1989<0>1071<0>1243<0>2696<0>1903<0>1759<0>3341<0>2881<0>3713<0>3815<0>366... |
Uh, uh, Taliban fighters in Afghanistan or insurgents in Iraq where you're taking down a small village and there's people and there's enemy in there and they're in a building and there's concentrated fire coming from there and you get a guy that low crawls up. I mean this is, this is just, this is just straight warfar... | <0>2273<0>1738<0>1738<0>2877<0>1480<0>2544<0>740<0>1025<0>353<0>3003<0>1376<0>2037<0>3612<0>2248<0>3146<0>3528<0>3667<0>3539<0>154<0>3522<0>2762<0>3782<0>2410<0>2234<0>1675<0>3457<0>1517<0>2328<0>2733<0>3934<0>3621<0>1277<0>1171<0>1638<0>2217<0>1517<0>3674<0>190<0>2197<0>3522<0>1520<0>3420<0>2471<0>2934<0>3997<0>3002<0... |
I mean, it's amazing how that story could translate into almost any modern era with, when you have guns. | <0>3667<0>3667<0>3002<0>3082<0>3500<0>1715<0>2441<0>2230<0>3374<0>3374<0>1967<0>716<0>645<0>1046<0>275<0>2806<0>385<0>770<0>1321<0>2619<0>3603<0>3005<0>3593<0>3365<0>1998<0>161<0>2332<0>2592<0>526<0>664<0>1254<0>2666<0>1816<0>3435<0>4055<0>406<0>2666<0>2733<0>2432<0>1076<0>3299<0>2510<0>2210<0>2476<0>3662<0>581<0>3601<... |
Yeah, except for the part where they cut off the hands, cut off the feet, cut off the head, rip open the breast and the belly. | <0>426<0>1718<0>2592<0>1031<0>3107<0>2864<0>2824<0>3392<0>3794<0>567<0>1762<0>1108<0>1318<0>3950<0>954<0>2566<0>1376<0>3123<0>587<0>1568<0>3875<0>3875<0>3110<0>2970<0>3037<0>1977<0>2298<0>83<0>915<0>144<0>3341<0>3240<0>3768<0>3679<0>1737<0>1770<0>1644<0>1569<0>2136<0>3963<0>2446<0>2446<0>1308<0>2705<0>1603<0>366<0>1084... |
Yeaah. They're taking it to, to a different level right there.

He put that in there. I mean, he's telling these stories and it offers you an insight as to what their attitude was and what they were going to do if you got captured by him. It's on.

Back to the book. Little Wolf had been a big tribal chief. The most influential one for about two years before that time. In his earlier manhood, he was, for a long time, chosen over and over again as the leading chief of the Elk Warrior Society. | <0>2883<0>2715<0>2666<0>3918<0>2520<0>1265<0>2232<0>2020<0>2060<0>2348<0>3607<0>3435<0>527<0>259<0>3750<0>1842<0>347<0>744<0>3875<0>1076<0>493<0>939<0>1351<0>871<0>191<0>151<0>2103<0>3427<0>2585<0>3152<0>4042<0>1878<0>2818<0>240<0>3427<0>1139<0>3781<0>3319<0>2284<0>1914<0>2205<0>329<0>2492<0>2492<0>1989<0>465<0>3913<0>... |
If during any time any Cheyenne was looked upon as the bravest of, man of all, he was the man. | <0>3843<0>2645<0>3238<0>21<0>1832<0>1940<0>2494<0>3530<0>1668<0>3561<0>2309<0>154<0>1644<0>1332<0>1372<0>1844<0>2108<0>2270<0>3173<0>1078<0>1477<0>1773<0>668<0>1139<0>1139<0>2331<0>1644<0>2446<0>2446<0>3215<0>2041<0>1878<0>1683<0>2020<0>2133<0>2907<0>2616<0>1231<0>1111<0>2280<0>3535<0>2520<0>122<0>3943<0>3828<0>3278<0>... |
He was never afraid to speak the truth. The people all believed in him. He was a gentle and charitable man, but if insulted to anger he was likely to hurt somebody. | <0>3830<0>2823<0>782<0>2506<0>2027<0>573<0>4080<0>1736<0>244<0>3137<0>1715<0>1710<0>1198<0>2700<0>974<0>3133<0>1842<0>3768<0>1100<0>1485<0>3956<0>1517<0>2710<0>4062<0>2378<0>3945<0>3839<0>1254<0>3427<0>1399<0>3115<0>2033<0>2374<0>3641<0>1255<0>465<0>3967<0>225<0>3610<0>2175<0>2271<0>1872<0>1878<0>1812<0>3984<0>2378<0>4... |

He was my uncle by marriage, one of his two wives being a sister of my father. He used to tell me many thrilling stories both at his lodge and my father's lodge. | <0>3269<0>65<0>3374<0>2327<0>1334<0>425<0>259<0>3522<0>2336<0>158<0>1084<0>2331<0>1940<0>1784<0>3215<0>484<0>652<0>142<0>1139<0>2424<0>2122<0>1859<0>810<0>2142<0>1099<0>1773<0>1152<0>3909<0>990<0>3122<0>1687<0>1085<0>1715<0>190<0>2289<0>3484<0>2030<0>2659<0>1719<0>3238<0>1084<0>3528<0>3662<0>1687<0>1737<0>678<0>678<0>1... |
I recall one in particular when he had hand-to-hand combat with a Shoshone. | <0>3992<0>943<0>3768<0>1777<0>1116<0>3756<0>2707<0>1032<0>1308<0>1832<0>3593<0>3643<0>1139<0>1332<0>252<0>154<0>1351<0>2753<0>2582<0>2751<0>2309<0>355<0>1638<0>2374<0>355<0>2881<0>720<0>3823<0>878<0>1638<0>3644<0>1365<0>1084<0>3122<0>3130<0>1240<0>1990<0>3423<0>1998<0>79<0>215<0>79<0>2331<0>2142<0>3522<0>1933<0>1062<0>... |
Each had a sheath knife. They grappled and wrestled and slashed one another. Finally, Little Wolf pinioned the arms of the Shoshone, threw him to the ground, plunged upon him and stabbed him to death. | <0>4066<0>3176<0>3204<0>55<0>3823<0>2119<0>2383<0>3823<0>3374<0>2328<0>3573<0>1448<0>3522<0>920<0>3172<0>3530<0>362<0>2270<0>3787<0>1255<0>597<0>1485<0>2348<0>1613<0>2441<0>2389<0>2707<0>2336<0>3617<0>2824<0>2787<0>1517<0>2707<0>3898<0>3307<0>3850<0>3002<0>259<0>644<0>644<0>1998<0>406<0>2946<0>2523<0>3662<0>1675<0>1111... |

My conduct all throughout my life has been influenced by his teachings more than by those of any other preceptor except my own father. | <0>3122<0>2787<0>1260<0>2813<0>2458<0>154<0>2721<0>1308<0>1021<0>1793<0>347<0>3881<0>859<0>894<0>803<0>2631<0>3596<0>2094<0>2707<0>2060<0>2309<0>915<0>2787<0>618<0>1790<0>1569<0>1865<0>2592<0>2787<0>355<0>864<0>838<0>694<0>1448<0>1062<0>465<0>2383<0>1339<0>2881<0>3998<0>2462<0>1080<0>2374<0>3828<0>2133<0>855<0>1198<0>3... |
So that's Little Wolf. Little Wolf was the badass. Little Wolf was the big badass. And I thought it was important to kinda talk about his characteristics. | <0>1198<0>2142<0>2522<0>484<0>2348<0>457<0>3977<0>4055<0>2374<0>3732<0>2205<0>329<0>465<0>2492<0>1989<0>1989<0>2492<0>1989<0>2711<0>3967<0>457<0>511<0>2133<0>3607<0>1878<0>866<0>983<0>3943<0>1114<0>2072<0>1816<0>967<0>1190<0>3649<0>3789<0>1743<0>2883<0>3535<0>1517<0>235<0>2348<0>2511<0>31<0>231<0>2999<0>73<0>3267<0>207... |
He spoke the truth. People believed him. He was gentle and charitable. But if he was angered, he was gonna hurt you. So this is the guy that they choose as their leader. | <0>1795<0>1782<0>155<0>1517<0>1675<0>614<0>2314<0>1255<0>3238<0>154<0>870<0>2527<0>975<0>548<0>2205<0>465<0>1989<0>1989<0>1108<0>465<0>543<0>1109<0>2751<0>3153<0>3240<0>871<0>1370<0>2020<0>2075<0>3134<0>2627<0>2721<0>381<0>1844<0>2790<0>2177<0>3481<0>983<0>1782<0>243<0>3849<0>2509<0>648<0>78<0>3460<0>3374<0>2408<0>2037... |
My friend, the white man doctor measures me now at 6 feet 2 inches and weighs me at 235 pounds. So, we're talking about a big dude. A wooden leg was no joke. | <0>1025<0>1569<0>2374<0>3720<0>275<0>1832<0>2733<0>3522<0>2904<0>2624<0>3694<0>3036<0>1878<0>3435<0>775<0>1832<0>748<0>1992<0>1473<0>1878<0>1255<0>1084<0>1687<0>246<0>2217<0>2824<0>2082<0>2371<0>176<0>2889<0>1372<0>3522<0>1770<0>974<0>1292<0>1517<0>3457<0>3823<0>456<0>2374<0>1198<0>1782<0>1209<0>4066<0>3891<0>809<0>146... |
So can you imagine being, you know, where the average height is probably 5'5", and wooden leg is 6'2", monster guy. | <0>2710<0>1400<0>506<0>545<0>809<0>2751<0>3649<0>3828<0>1992<0>15<0>2659<0>4038<0>3646<0>950<0>597<0>556<0>290<0>4048<0>3875<0>1111<0>457<0>512<0>1772<0>163<0>3158<0>355<0>2715<0>2001<0>78<0>2795<0>3852<0>3998<0>3984<0>1265<0>3122<0>3134<0>1914<0>374<0>1687<0>2585<0>3134<0>180<0>1687<0>1046<0>355<0>1668<0>2923<0>653<0>... |
So now they're, they're, he's talking a little bit about just, again, this continuing on with his life, living in the Black Hills. | <0>2352<0>3791<0>2082<0>2900<0>1564<0>3505<0>3214<0>252<0>1079<0>908<0>2470<0>2750<0>2860<0>1533<0>2676<0>1108<0>137<0>2657<0>3457<0>1341<0>1569<0>3122<0>31<0>2133<0>3528<0>262<0>1265<0>1084<0>2824<0>78<0>2659<0>1715<0>1198<0>915<0>963<0>3875<0>3667<0>2060<0>1400<0>3332<0>955<0>1428<0>3053<0>1171<0>672<0>1171<0>2155<0>... |
Here we hunted the game and the enemy crows and shoshonis. And here we lived in every way the life of the plains Indians of those times. It was not an idle existence. We were busy much of the time fighting our enemies or gathering food and clothing and sheltering skins. | <0>2328<0>1351<0>3828<0>3374<0>2488<0>2001<0>2904<0>3643<0>1878<0>3522<0>3204<0>3374<0>3280<0>3488<0>3522<0>2538<0>353<0>353<0>353<0>2492<0>2492<0>1062<0>744<0>3713<0>3522<0>1254<0>3204<0>1435<0>3374<0>190<0>969<0>3457<0>3391<0>1498<0>275<0>915<0>3224<0>3535<0>573<0>3427<0>3823<0>3427<0>1998<0>1328<0>3522<0>2632<0>2710... |
As we were camped on the Lower Tongue River when I was about nine years old, one morning a herald started to cry out, All of our horses are gone! | <0>943<0>2806<0>1715<0>2196<0>1777<0>1341<0>573<0>275<0>2424<0>932<0>2999<0>2176<0>2008<0>3607<0>2001<0>147<0>385<0>1569<0>3582<0>2991<0>65<0>313<0>484<0>974<0>262<0>366<0>2775<0>366<0>3662<0>2743<0>1687<0>1334<0>1372<0>376<0>2659<0>805<0>1518<0>1990<0>1094<0>3898<0>4046<0>2027<0>2336<0>3603<0>587<0>882<0>2733<0>1085<0... |
But after a search of the vicinity, they discovered that somebody was in a canyon cave there. One of the Cheyenne's crawled into the cave in an endeavor to verify the supposition. | <0>1770<0>1638<0>2488<0>932<0>65<0>155<0>932<0>3691<0>1719<0>1668<0>235<0>2060<0>1517<0>190<0>720<0>1465<0>2721<0>658<0>1139<0>1341<0>3146<0>3828<0>1111<0>3319<0>1457<0>1859<0>2629<0>775<0>1517<0>2142<0>4046<0>3909<0>2299<0>4050<0>2331<0>3342<0>1517<0>3823<0>1351<0>3488<0>2103<0>2347<0>3823<0>95<0>1254<0>2627<0>2633<0>... |
The one-sided contest went on until the two Crow Indian men burst out from the cave almost suffocated and in desperation. | <0>1190<0>2619<0>1790<0>1575<0>1777<0>1675<0>3522<0>1062<0>1942<0>3020<0>2959<0>2115<0>2826<0>3828<0>275<0>3002<0>3850<0>2583<0>2881<0>149<0>1816<0>3119<0>374<0>3910<0>1084<0>2488<0>3130<0>2197<0>963<0>2433<0>3693<0>374<0>2666<0>3828<0>3374<0>1139<0>2217<0>3898<0>2799<0>3089<0>95<0>1062<0>1942<0>3828<0>2894<0>3008<0>28... |
The first one was beaten and stabbed to death by their surrounding Cheyennes. The second one got past them, sprang upon one of their horses and dashed away. The Cheyennes pursued him. | <0>1842<0>2001<0>2860<0>770<0>3768<0>1351<0>1118<0>707<0>2060<0>3781<0>556<0>556<0>3446<0>3172<0>2177<0>2228<0>1579<0>3729<0>1517<0>355<0>2970<0>3446<0>2904<0>2328<0>355<0>3984<0>1791<0>599<0>2133<0>3823<0>1967<0>2133<0>1111<0>154<0>1539<0>190<0>1139<0>1687<0>3678<0>809<0>2197<0>3662<0>2395<0>2710<0>1198<0>1137<0>1108<... |
He happened to mount a slow animal, so it was not long before the chase developed into a beating by pony whips and handles. The crow suddenly jerked his mount to a sandstill. At the same moment, he flashed out his sheath knife and made a vicious sideways stab. | <0>2928<0>3823<0>3934<0>1423<0>346<0>346<0>819<0>2001<0>3677<0>2864<0>144<0>3535<0>1715<0>3828<0>2635<0>3828<0>1113<0>216<0>967<0>262<0>819<0>2946<0>1575<0>3393<0>465<0>353<0>290<0>1071<0>2907<0>1155<0>1517<0>1569<0>3373<0>3280<0>1687<0>2210<0>1738<0>1392<0>1392<0>2133<0>1640<0>374<0>259<0>275<0>2904<0>3830<0>3823<0>57... |
Again, it's, it's interesting. What do they do? They got a guy in a, in a situation, you know, they got him trapped in a cave. How do they get him out of there? Well, what would we do nowadays? Oh, maybe we throw some tear gas in there. Well, what do they do? Build a fire, smoke them out. | <0>382<0>3134<0>1076<0>3374<0>809<0>1996<0>227<0>1539<0>155<0>2475<0>1351<0>366<0>1334<0>1517<0>3033<0>1214<0>2888<0>87<0>457<0>3115<0>457<0>3146<0>3768<0>1171<0>3909<0>3217<0>3452<0>1638<0>2715<0>2766<0>1815<0>1638<0>1207<0>567<0>1071<0>3466<0>786<0>3593<0>1517<0>1139<0>3593<0>3122<0>3376<0>1139<0>3823<0>3522<0>3693<0... |
A little bit more about the life of the Cheyennes. Competitive sports used to interest us. Horse races, foot races, wrestling matches, target shooting with guns or arrows, tossing the arrows by hand, swimming, jumping or other like contests were entered upon. | <0>1118<0>915<0>2349<0>2027<0>818<0>1777<0>1675<0>484<0>3691<0>2511<0>3691<0>3823<0>2374<0>567<0>135<0>3427<0>1139<0>181<0>186<0>213<0>3707<0>3513<0>770<0>1198<0>1842<0>4046<0>2205<0>3480<0>3581<0>1187<0>1465<0>1187<0>3839<0>2966<0>2826<0>866<0>2346<0>2750<0>63<0>3457<0>2155<0>1171<0>367<0>1141<0>760<0>1076<0>190<0>199... |
In the tribes such competition was usually between men representing the three warrior societies. So inside, so inside the tribe there was three separate warrior societies. Like three different clubs basically. | <0>3573<0>2881<0>3427<0>1308<0>2332<0>3152<0>3002<0>2142<0>3643<0>1737<0>1113<0>2520<0>2666<0>1139<0>155<0>3146<0>3374<0>3556<0>3280<0>822<0>1728<0>3488<0>1737<0>3008<0>1852<0>186<0>154<0>154<0>3130<0>969<0>855<0>2585<0>3830<0>1684<0>605<0>2217<0>2115<0>3530<0>3528<0>3457<0>3828<0>2511<0>3435<0>2619<0>932<0>2928<0>1351... |

The stakes were of guns, ammunition, bows, arrows, blankets, horses, robes, jewelry, shirts, leggings, moccasins, everything in the line of personal property. | <0>2881<0>824<0>2577<0>3677<0>1357<0>3376<0>3226<0>262<0>2606<0>376<0>1085<0>1671<0>3529<0>1697<0>1737<0>2133<0>1529<0>65<0>1623<0>2813<0>1111<0>3691<0>1517<0>3130<0>3363<0>155<0>1517<0>2205<0>465<0>1989<0>1989<0>3967<0>1989<0>3116<0>1142<0>3002<0>1998<0>3376<0>312<0>2577<0>275<0>1738<0>3656<0>21<0>3137<0>1998<0>3729<0... |
Also, these guys were heavily involved in competition, cause competition makes you better. This reminds me of the SEAL teams, like everything in the SEAL teams is a competition. I don't care what you're doing. You get, your buddy says, hey, you want to go for just a mellow run on the beach? You go, yeah, sure, no prob... | <0>3791<0>3348<0>1289<0>1175<0>3751<0>3215<0>441<0>835<0>262<0>3376<0>2488<0>3898<0>1022<0>2873<0>1675<0>678<0>3122<0>866<0>3984<0>4055<0>1365<0>2824<0>374<0>382<0>1737<0>3122<0>3943<0>2666<0>3374<0>1139<0>3647<0>2135<0>1411<0>2525<0>374<0>1687<0>2471<0>2309<0>3823<0>155<0>1332<0>3365<0>3238<0>3528<0>2881<0>570<0>1480<... |
Everything, every time you get on the range, it's a shooting contest. Every time you go, every, everything you do is, you know, you go for a skydive. Oh, how close did you get to the tee? You know, when you land. So everything is a contest and that's how these guys are doing. This is what keeps them sharp. | <0>2001<0>3238<0>645<0>3624<0>1255<0>1250<0>2432<0>3593<0>1575<0>3122<0>2878<0>2779<0>1776<0>2694<0>3398<0>355<0>715<0>2894<0>2617<0>3530<0>1400<0>1445<0>518<0>3787<0>1083<0>3617<0>3457<0>1334<0>2017<0>2155<0>379<0>1308<0>262<0>2133<0>1832<0>3376<0>190<0>3457<0>2446<0>1517<0>1719<0>3641<0>969<0>1491<0>2795<0>366<0>3691... |
And so this, this one here that Little Hawk and a guy named Buffalo Hump and Brave Wolf, they, they, | <0>1078<0>243<0>2060<0>2060<0>3541<0>1675<0>3694<0>2424<0>765<0>282<0>948<0>3849<0>2525<0>2826<0>1168<0>3791<0>367<0>2895<0>969<0>2475<0>2579<0>346<0>3217<0>752<0>2307<0>1748<0>871<0>871<0>1108<0>4058<0>87<0>1296<0>2659<0>1518<0>974<0>86<0>2210<0>2381<0>2935<0>1844<0>1111<0>2864<0>3148<0>720<0>2155<0>1277<0>366<0>3621<... |
Go around and they meet up with another tribe. And they roll in and he says, We need meat. | <0>13<0>3505<0>1679<0>1084<0>1838<0>1399<0>2860<0>262<0>1799<0>355<0>3186<0>1532<0>1076<0>2888<0>1076<0>664<0>2585<0>1812<0>990<0>2520<0>3559<0>2520<0>1675<0>3662<0>518<0>3004<0>3972<0>1838<0>1262<0>1255<0>9<0>707<0>1989<0>4066<0>4066<0>4066<0>3967<0>465<0>1989<0>2492<0>2398<0>3839<0>3617<0>2619<0>3782<0>3240<0>2999<0>... |
They announced. Your drying poles are too full and we think our wants can be supplied here. Little Hawk wants to wrestle for it. | <0>1942<0>633<0>3089<0>2366<0>2733<0>3174<0>2998<0>3780<0>1198<0>1062<0>2155<0>65<0>2087<0>2860<0>691<0>882<0>163<0>1231<0>2707<0>3207<0>2550<0>2280<0>3656<0>2773<0>969<0>3750<0>694<0>189<0>2529<0>2707<0>4055<0>2314<0>1104<0>915<0>1076<0>864<0>939<0>154<0>3756<0>2619<0>3923<0>259<0>2860<0>385<0>307<0>4038<0>1465<0>3002... |
If anybody here can throw him, we shall not take any food from this lodge. | <0>3281<0>1351<0>2881<0>1351<0>176<0>3374<0>339<0>652<0>2060<0>1568<0>313<0>2860<0>3828<0>2520<0>2824<0>2624<0>2156<0>1025<0>2296<0>1719<0>275<0>54<0>4075<0>1517<0>939<0>3573<0>95<0>864<0>3732<0>197<0>3732<0>3559<0>1675<0>1517<0>974<0>3122<0>1222<0>3365<0>823<0>1062<0>3981<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>39... |
Nobody wanted to accept this challenge. The young men took some meat and went on to another TP. | <0>2135<0>932<0>1768<0>638<0>915<0>3207<0>1569<0>3462<0>1517<0>2296<0>216<0>1517<0>3130<0>87<0>1987<0>2710<0>3573<0>1638<0>2133<0>2133<0>2309<0>1465<0>1816<0>2133<0>3522<0>3595<0>1998<0>3522<0>2424<0>265<0>1859<0>3571<0>1062<0>3967<0>1198<0>1265<0>838<0>1118<0>1992<0>1254<0>2475<0>75<0>1989<0>3973<0>1989<0>2492<0>3967<... |
There, they made the same kind of announcement in proposition. There, likewise, all the men present feared to grapple with Little Hawk. | <0>3116<0>3156<0>526<0>1085<0>21<0>3884<0>2780<0>1071<0>3281<0>1175<0>3215<0>3488<0>2060<0>3535<0>3215<0>1140<0>3678<0>262<0>275<0>2542<0>1687<0>1392<0>1517<0>2824<0>154<0>207<0>3341<0>4004<0>3691<0>3729<0>1998<0>155<0>2127<0>2739<0>2000<0>2270<0>142<0>1832<0>1085<0>2142<0>1116<0>776<0>3756<0>3852<0>495<0>479<0>2750<0>... |
And there are also the three joking robbers help themselves from the bountiful store. | <0>2904<0>2801<0>3505<0>2619<0>1990<0>3535<0>2348<0>235<0>1400<0>2826<0>1073<0>142<0>3641<0>65<0>1265<0>664<0>197<0>1084<0>3341<0>3122<0>932<0>4050<0>355<0>1990<0>207<0>3267<0>1517<0>1715<0>775<0>1990<0>3155<0>3267<0>3528<0>2072<0>898<0>4004<0>1737<0>1384<0>1659<0>1517<0>1339<0>1990<0>1392<0>3946<0>1031<0>3981<0>2068<0... |
The spokesman of the lodge said, Big thigh is here. He says he will wrestle you. | <0>3967<0>2072<0>2060<0>2826<0>2133<0>3115<0>1341<0>3134<0>1104<0>3174<0>3898<0>1990<0>1819<0>1569<0>2432<0>3535<0>3110<0>355<0>142<0>2205<0>3526<0>871<0>3176<0>3374<0>756<0>2645<0>2374<0>2860<0>413<0>691<0>4080<0>3875<0>1187<0>317<0>2309<0>2751<0>3875<0>2142<0>1734<0>3946<0>1038<0>465<0>1989<0>3003<0>2058<0>465<0>1702... |
Now, I'll tell you right now. I don't wanna wrestle Big Thigh. Right? Big Thigh sounds like he's got some game. | <0>345<0>1213<0>3246<0>1350<0>3828<0>1517<0>1131<0>638<0>1308<0>1814<0>2082<0>2999<0>366<0>144<0>3593<0>3538<0>1038<0>391<0>3057<0>2569<0>3233<0>2205<0>904<0>465<0>2790<0>35<0>3214<0>2704<0>2699<0>2624<0>3994<0>1014<0>3768<0>179<0>2900<0>3791<0>506<0>1094<0>3295<0>2155<0>35<0>2900<0>413<0>441<0>3380<0>433<0>3315<0>380<... |
The group of onlookers assembled. The group soon became a great crowd. Big Thigh and Little Hawk appeared equally confident. Both of them rushed into the grapple. They tugged and shoved and tripped. The advantage seemed to shift back and forth. The throng of spectators whooped and danced. | <0>679<0>3809<0>3828<0>3857<0>618<0>1392<0>1687<0>932<0>2110<0>176<0>3223<0>3535<0>3791<0>570<0>1878<0>1392<0>1480<0>1812<0>3025<0>715<0>3146<0>1255<0>3155<0>1719<0>181<0>3790<0>1254<0>1711<0>2309<0>1917<0>1113<0>870<0>3146<0>1257<0>423<0>3025<0>154<0>1638<0>3157<0>1812<0>3975<0>1393<0>1481<0>1318<0>3295<0>1491<0>2959<... |
There was some partisan cheering, but most of it was merely the expression of delight as witnessing this tribal championship battle. After several minutes of fierce and continuous struggling, Little Hawk began to weaken and wilt. | <0>854<0>3348<0>1400<0>1977<0>262<0>1480<0>3601<0>2619<0>542<0>1715<0>190<0>3587<0>1139<0>573<0>932<0>1175<0>819<0>2228<0>2000<0>1812<0>1113<0>2750<0>313<0>1152<0>313<0>15<0>2946<0>782<0>908<0>3445<0>2777<0>3217<0>65<0>2721<0>573<0>884<0>1719<0>2904<0>3852<0>1719<0>1945<0>234<0>2585<0>1990<0>1772<0>1175<0>972<0>3535<0>... |
The victor sat astride the back of the vanquished and sprinkled handfuls of dirt upon him. He also picked up a folded blanket nearby and used this as a soft club and pretense at beating into complete submission the defeated little hawk. | <0>871<0>2060<0>593<0>3295<0>164<0>1998<0>65<0>3002<0>2995<0>15<0>2787<0>3583<0>313<0>3002<0>3530<0>1027<0>2750<0>1084<0>1116<0>2925<0>2659<0>154<0>3845<0>3349<0>3349<0>1815<0>3691<0>3224<0>65<0>2016<0>1832<0>3376<0>174<0>1679<0>1719<0>3830<0>1255<0>3746<0>1385<0>2893<0>1679<0>3002<0>3155<0>1793<0>176<0>1937<0>1990<0>2... |
That's a legit jujitsu match right there. Got the, got the back, got the back mount. Got the submission. | <0>60<0>2577<0>2516<0>3224<0>374<0>78<0>3376<0>233<0>2938<0>78<0>3457<0>1462<0>216<0>819<0>2327<0>3603<0>3427<0>2280<0>3082<0>3547<0>2585<0>2806<0>3217<0>1940<0>196<0>2251<0>3386<0>465<0>2004<0>1428<0>1414<0>493<0>2787<0>3656<0>2327<0>1852<0>1852<0>2099<0>2733<0>2585<0>2217<0>3446<0>526<0>4080<0>1815<0>2708<0>1615<0>37... |
Every 10 years, the whole tribe would get together for the special purpose of choosing 40 big chiefs. | <0>523<0>3899<0>2894<0>142<0>2309<0>1602<0>2801<0>1254<0>95<0>1668<0>3449<0>1890<0>1084<0>411<0>2707<0>1628<0>3559<0>1998<0>1308<0>1569<0>2585<0>3820<0>1320<0>1697<0>1139<0>855<0>645<0>1473<0>2806<0>3217<0>3732<0>1878<0>778<0>2710<0>2381<0>1998<0>1668<0>1155<0>3691<0>207<0>1339<0>2769<0>1038<0>1471<0>664<0>1254<0>397<0... |
These 40 would then select four past chiefs or old men chiefs to serve as supreme advisors to them and the tribe. | <0>1465<0>3158<0>3002<0>2705<0>3943<0>2181<0>3667<0>1076<0>990<0>2634<0>142<0>794<0>3460<0>2710<0>144<0>2303<0>3152<0>780<0>2666<0>1255<0>894<0>2784<0>1016<0>1432<0>3732<0>2826<0>3607<0>3185<0>1734<0>1480<0>2645<0>1334<0>2832<0>2705<0>2889<0>3624<0>1139<0>3320<0>1377<0>2115<0>1719<0>2850<0>411<0>1990<0>2352<0>990<0>527... |
There were not any hereditary chiefs among the Cheyennes. So, that's a pretty cool system. | <0>4058<0>2801<0>3146<0>3115<0>3662<0>570<0>2332<0>1874<0>4007<0>3376<0>3158<0>190<0>4004<0>2753<0>3595<0>1450<0>2710<0>2633<0>3142<0>3522<0>3624<0>518<0>2432<0>1491<0>864<0>1517<0>147<0>1982<0>1675<0>870<0>1139<0>2446<0>2110<0>2014<0>1598<0>3478<0>1292<0>2566<0>2710<0>1198<0>465<0>1989<0>1989<0>1108<0>1108<0>1989<0>19... |
I like that system.

They end up, they, they, they kind of elect forty chiefs, and then from those forty chiefs, those forty chiefs take three more, four more to make the old men chief. | <0>3153<0>2935<0>969<0>3299<0>1812<0>346<0>3539<0>2103<0>939<0>3754<0>3939<0>556<0>3380<0>3855<0>441<0>2082<0>2133<0>2511<0>932<0>3648<0>1737<0>144<0>34<0>3909<0>142<0>1719<0>879<0>2633<0>2136<0>1339<0>1198<0>4066<0>1894<0>1468<0>558<0>3732<0>3407<0>1144<0>3344<0>3732<0>1463<0>1886<0>1468<0>760<0>55<0>3158<0>2136<0>253... |

Make them stay in their proper places. If any of them disobey our ordinary rules of travel, you may pony whip them, you may shoot their horses, you may kill their dogs, you may break their guns or their bows, you may punish them in any way that seems to you best, except you are not allowed to kill any Cheyenne. | <0>2542<0>151<0>3199<0>1865<0>3462<0>3002<0>2030<0>1139<0>3139<0>3374<0>4026<0>2801<0>3603<0>2450<0>1480<0>2619<0>1084<0>2110<0>3122<0>207<0>2999<0>3939<0>672<0>1719<0>2358<0>672<0>2424<0>518<0>3787<0>2287<0>1175<0>3530<0>3374<0>1100<0>243<0>3374<0>2217<0>3204<0>939<0>3002<0>2659<0>3809<0>3004<0>2470<0>2470<0>939<0>95<... |
So that's one of the rules, you're gonna hear that throughout.

Speaking of weapons, and you heard him talk about breaking bows, and this is just kinda giving you some insight on what they use for weapons. The arrow was the preferred weapon when on a tribal hunt in Buffalo Herd, or when a large party were joined in pursuit. | <0>2328<0>224<0>2451<0>2327<0>614<0>3140<0>3898<0>1687<0>2389<0>1644<0>3904<0>2309<0>1491<0>1737<0>3122<0>3860<0>1569<0>3122<0>3122<0>871<0>3240<0>559<0>3637<0>224<0>1201<0>1675<0>147<0>3344<0>234<0>1517<0>3307<0>1517<0>1517<0>3378<0>1339<0>349<0>1989<0>2395<0>1339<0>1517<0>1587<0>2331<0>181<0>1675<0>3913<0>3164<0>756<... |
Each rider shot arrow after arrow into whatever animal was convenient to him during the tumult of the running chase.

He had one or two more arrows in various dead buffalo scattered over the area by the flight of the herd. Every man kept his own arrows and always marked in some peculiar manner nearby they could be identified. | <0>3830<0>2289<0>882<0>3122<0>2259<0>3407<0>3691<0>1719<0>969<0>1372<0>37<0>1913<0>2460<0>2293<0>1186<0>2001<0>1569<0>3122<0>11<0>1715<0>1176<0>397<0>3522<0>3522<0>1277<0>3155<0>3595<0>2133<0>3278<0>3374<0>2826<0>648<0>191<0>939<0>2721<0>1277<0>3691<0>932<0>1737<0>2336<0>2186<0>1517<0>1719<0>3037<0>1085<0>2082<0>2001<0... |
So when the field was reviewed after the termination of the killing, he could find out which buffalo he had killed or had helped to kill. It could be learned in such instance which arrow was the fatal one and which were of little or no importance. Thus the claims to the skin and meat could be settled. | <0>1517<0>915<0>3582<0>3732<0>864<0>339<0>2336<0>4072<0>3691<0>3062<0>2348<0>2348<0>2959<0>3875<0>573<0>2299<0>971<0>943<0>3148<0>1480<0>250<0>3956<0>2889<0>154<0>154<0>1065<0>1139<0>1719<0>3307<0>234<0>3894<0>3674<0>3667<0>511<0>3667<0>963<0>3038<0>2634<0>2705<0>1111<0>4038<0>3595<0>3240<0>3898<0>812<0>3038<0>158<0>24... |
In case of a disagreement, the chiefs decided to question. Gun bullets could not be distinguished from one another, so the guns were used only when one man was hunting alone or when a small party of special friends hunted together. | <0>1467<0>1254<0>2309<0>2777<0>1517<0>300<0>3956<0>1795<0>3535<0>3535<0>2099<0>2894<0>3823<0>3505<0>421<0>3891<0>1719<0>1782<0>227<0>1517<0>1517<0>2008<0>3013<0>190<0>3573<0>174<0>1990<0>2197<0>3059<0>3365<0>2840<0>465<0>465<0>3967<0>3610<0>3167<0>2362<0>543<0>3987<0>2630<0>3124<0>3691<0>2516<0>244<0>2705<0>3160<0>3522... |
The guns also had to have powder, and lead, and caps, which we did not always have on hand. We could make arrows, or we often recovered them from the dead animals. | <0>3528<0>2824<0>122<0>3137<0>3137<0>1664<0>3460<0>3904<0>1517<0>1714<0>2676<0>1649<0>2782<0>144<0>1517<0>484<0>2327<0>3934<0>1640<0>3647<0>1334<0>1084<0>877<0>382<0>2230<0>4004<0>3240<0>1159<0>458<0>2463<0>2712<0>2086<0>3267<0>3224<0>2516<0>355<0>3595<0>142<0>3172<0>375<0>3446<0>2715<0>2135<0>2666<0>2331<0>3934<0>1423... |
Okay, other weapons.

Great care was taken in its coloring and general design. The Su had knife sticks for fighting. These had long shafts, the same as a spear, but instead of the attach point at the end, there were three blades at the shaft side. | <0>1748<0>697<0>884<0>4031<0>2374<0>3823<0>1332<0>50<0>3898<0>181<0>1339<0>2282<0>3823<0>2823<0>2328<0>95<0>2421<0>3320<0>249<0>1467<0>421<0>1777<0>2650<0>974<0>154<0>3134<0>1539<0>303<0>3573<0>1351<0>2824<0>1990<0>2072<0>2327<0>805<0>2813<0>1675<0>1334<0>2398<0>2135<0>1062<0>894<0>3694<0>1737<0>3624<0>3967<0>3449<0>17... |
So that's kind of a unique looking weapon. It kind of sounds mad max-ish. You know, a long spear with three knives sticking on it. | <0>3860<0>2520<0>207<0>1517<0>963<0>3967<0>2840<0>811<0>1644<0>1094<0>3134<0>493<0>1491<0>2433<0>2433<0>3528<0>122<0>551<0>1982<0>1738<0>1675<0>567<0>556<0>3693<0>1062<0>1942<0>133<0>2244<0>614<0>1071<0>2711<0>2663<0>1942<0>587<0>370<0>3603<0>1517<0>4050<0>2034<0>234<0>1277<0>1438<0>967<0>3539<0>2398<0>2234<0>3934<0>17... |
Talking about a little bit of the dress, the earrings of an Indian often indicated his tribal stock. | <0>589<0>2488<0>1569<0>154<0>1111<0>3344<0>3224<0>3528<0>3559<0>3559<0>3693<0>921<0>2041<0>1130<0>1517<0>1782<0>369<0>2840<0>1655<0>1175<0>1902<0>3457<0>3522<0>317<0>2060<0>3224<0>3488<0>3759<0>3488<0>303<0>3457<0>2801<0>1533<0>1736<0>374<0>3204<0>3573<0>1491<0>1485<0>3984<0>95<0>1664<0>1255<0>138<0>2889<0>1399<0>1084<... |
A Cheyenne ear had but one piercing, only one ring, and this ring was looped directly through or close up to the ear. | <0>3116<0>908<0>3427<0>2999<0>2999<0>3479<0>3892<0>3649<0>3606<0>1532<0>3884<0>594<0>2715<0>3028<0>2824<0>66<0>3140<0>3140<0>1575<0>2349<0>556<0>1277<0>3984<0>3522<0>969<0>1719<0>3643<0>2498<0>465<0>4066<0>3003<0>465<0>871<0>1094<0>1468<0>1254<0>158<0>484<0>3267<0>2824<0>1992<0>510<0>324<0>142<0>3992<0>1753<0>1176<0>90... |
The Sioux wore necklaces regularly in single strands.

The number of such feathers worn by any one man was supposed to denote the number of enemies he had killed. The Cheyenne's never adopted this custom. | <0>1836<0>3460<0>190<0>932<0>484<0>2001<0>1517<0>932<0>3427<0>3732<0>355<0>1816<0>346<0>3752<0>1517<0>3435<0>462<0>1439<0>3407<0>2864<0>3339<0>1389<0>148<0>1076<0>3528<0>3481<0>181<0>556<0>2014<0>3331<0>2824<0>3691<0>1198<0>3984<0>1675<0>2705<0>855<0>3204<0>645<0>122<0>234<0>2904<0>645<0>2075<0>3224<0>1777<0>3424<0>106... |
All the best clothing was taken along with him when any warrior were to set out in search for a conflict. | <0>2094<0>2027<0>2072<0>2072<0>522<0>1517<0>2282<0>2447<0>3896<0>915<0>3528<0>3528<0>3008<0>303<0>648<0>2135<0>2314<0>3115<0>2705<0>3002<0>1175<0>3238<0>275<0>2946<0>2946<0>618<0>2133<0>3522<0>915<0>2328<0>1568<0>1463<0>3528<0>969<0>2844<0>1171<0>2432<0>3134<0>871<0>2946<0>1084<0>3522<0>3122<0>3435<0>3122<0>190<0>983<0... |
The articles were put into a special bag, ordinarily a beautifully braided buckskin pouch, but perhaps a rawhide one, and this was slung at one side of this horse. | <0>664<0>2787<0>2001<0>910<0>2510<0>3809<0>3363<0>3541<0>567<0>1793<0>3528<0>1719<0>2710<0>1770<0>1719<0>3449<0>2072<0>567<0>2958<0>3539<0>2715<0>1638<0>3419<0>1895<0>1942<0>3967<0>2631<0>189<0>1569<0>3254<0>3215<0>2230<0>3122<0>3488<0>493<0>543<0>1718<0>158<0>1277<0>3460<0>1558<0>638<0>3732<0>1679<0>3153<0>871<0>1878<... |

If a battle seemed about to occur, the warrior's first important preparatory act was to jerk off all his ordinary clothing. | <0>2425<0>2999<0>3122<0>2197<0>2082<0>2787<0>189<0>2826<0>2966<0>4038<0>2824<0>3522<0>2205<0>366<0>3122<0>904<0>1182<0>3541<0>1675<0>1937<0>154<0>3884<0>1111<0>207<0>1038<0>1062<0>3967<0>1265<0>3898<0>3435<0>1392<0>969<0>1372<0>1111<0>2432<0>2826<0>1812<0>2612<0>858<0>652<0>1111<0>716<0>1339<0>1062<0>2812<0>1277<0>3036... |
He then hurriedly got out his fine garments. If he had time to do so, he re-braided his hair, painted his face in his own peculiar way, did everything needful to prepare himself for presenting his most splendid personal appearance. That is, he got himself ready to die. | <0>4055<0>95<0>3823<0>1602<0>2331<0>2110<0>2001<0>2001<0>543<0>1468<0>3606<0>1277<0>599<0>1569<0>2450<0>1025<0>1989<0>1031<0>1687<0>3122<0>1640<0>664<0>2710<0>2705<0>3840<0>1111<0>2923<0>768<0>324<0>614<0>43<0>2460<0>1675<0>1292<0>1057<0>3873<0>3002<0>2462<0>1198<0>707<0>2492<0>465<0>1748<0>2631<0>303<0>908<0>2598<0>29... |
The idea of full dress and preparation for battle comes not from a belief that it will add to the fighting ability. The preparation is for death. | <0>3320<0>2715<0>3892<0>3320<0>3457<0>3875<0>1998<0>511<0>65<0>2284<0>1842<0>3828<0>3828<0>3691<0>3204<0>1112<0>489<0>1977<0>1517<0>1558<0>343<0>154<0>154<0>1480<0>3122<0>3498<0>3641<0>1139<0>3528<0>3264<0>1675<0>2072<0>2488<0>3339<0>154<0>1990<0>458<0>1772<0>3590<0>988<0>1687<0>1118<0>1822<0>1569<0>2642<0>1159<0>83<0>... |

War bonnets were not worn by all warriors. In fact, there were only a few such distinguished men in each warrior society of our tribe. | <0>1768<0>1708<0>189<0>1738<0>2471<0>484<0>3603<0>2718<0>1722<0>3235<0>3535<0>1198<0>2663<0>1989<0>2631<0>3067<0>3407<0>2801<0>2832<0>1533<0>1520<0>2991<0>2043<0>652<0>3513<0>1265<0>2787<0>993<0>2474<0>3535<0>2883<0>3435<0>586<0>1129<0>2327<0>720<0>352<0>3713<0>1255<0>3320<0>1468<0>2144<0>2374<0>21<0>1334<0>2230<0>343<... |
It was expected that one should be a student of the fighting art for several years or else that he be an unusually apt learner before he should put the crown of eagle feathers. He then did so upon his own initiatives. | <0>131<0>915<0>3374<0>2060<0>312<0>2826<0>2871<0>2970<0>2893<0>3204<0>3581<0>974<0>871<0>3394<0>144<0>3462<0>1139<0>3522<0>3204<0>3875<0>2060<0>2060<0>2710<0>1719<0>2258<0>1992<0>556<0>150<0>1675<0>122<0>154<0>1145<0>484<0>3505<0>573<0>190<0>1982<0>1057<0>479<0>1736<0>1319<0>3732<0>2034<0>716<0>1517<0>1616<0>2339<0>382... |
So if you want to get that big badass headdress, I thought it was pretty interesting. You give it to yourself. You know, now people can tell you, you deserve it, but you, you make the claim.
