Geronimo is in no hurry to leave... being treated well and making money selling autographs and pictures. [EB]
Indians boycott reenactment of death of Sitting Bull, when they see his spirit in the log cabin erected for the re-enactment showing how he was murdered. The cabin is said to be exactly similar to the one where the crime was committed. The Indians had been rehearsing when suddenly it was called off. Noone knew why until Joe Whitehorse, a Blackfoot, confided the reason. Several of the Sioux were passing the cabin when they saw a light shining through the door. Looking in they saw Sitting Bull sitting in front of a fire. Suddenly a man appeared behind him... and delivered a blow to Sitting Bull's head... immediately the lights went out. No Indian has gone in since. Some Apaches of Geronimo's band, who were to occupy it during the balance of their stay, a lso have decline. [EB]
Several delegations left for home... 19 Blackfoot, 28 Sac/Fox, 9 Tonkemas, 19 Ponca and 1 Arapahoe family. [WH]
