► The Frontier, July 29, 188d
An amueing incident is still relat
ed in connection with the Indian
scare among the settlers along the
Niobrara river, which *#CUred in
' the summer of 1881. Some soktters'
from Fort Randall, in search of

discharged some of their piece* at
' a mark, when a cowboy who wan

herd heard them, and imagining
the reds were coming made for the
! settlement and gave the alarm.
J The rumor ran with the wind and

and plunder were hastily put in
wagons and with the greatest haste

O’Neill. When the word was
brought to one family that Indians
were coming and that they must

not granted as tile lives of the
women and children could not be
imperiled to save one man, besides
he had a horse and could take care
of Jnneslf. But the undaunted
maiden would not hear of it. Her
lover must be saved, she ran to
the field and told the young man of
the awful peril. Without even stop
ping to unhitch from the single
