King, Charles, 1844-1933

"A Daughter of the Sioux A Tale of the Indian frontier"

He was sent back from Carlisle to Dakota as
irreclaimable, and after a year or two on his native heath,
reappeared among the haunts of civilization as one of Buffalo
Bill's warriors. Bill discharged him at Cincinnati and, at the
instance of the Indian Bureau, he was again placed at Carlisle,
only to repeat on a larger scale his earlier exploits and secure a
second transfer to the Plains, where his opportunities for
devilment were limited. Then Cody was induced to take him on again
by profuse promises of good behavior, which were kept until
Pennsylvania soil was reached two weeks ago, when he broke loose
again; was seen in store clothes around West Philadelphia for a few
days, plentifully supplied with money, and next he turned up in the
streets of Carlisle, where he assaulted an attache of the school,
whose life was barely saved by the prompt efforts of other Indian
students. Moreau escaped to Harrisburg, which he proceeded to paint
his favorite color that very night, and wound up the entertainment
by galloping away on the horse of a prominent official, who had
essayed to escort him back to Carlisle.
