Local Note:
Swift Bear. Was One of the Chiefs Who Escorted Crazy Horse to Post Robinson. The Brule chief was the author's grand uncle thru marriage of his sister, "Huntka-Lutawin", to the author's grandfather, James Bordeaux. Authorative information characterizes Swift Bear as the reserved type, disposed to be peaceable and kept his band under control during the final days for conquest of the Dakotas. Back in 1854, he played the role of a hero following a brief battle between thirty soldiers under Lieut. John Gratan's command and a band of Brule Sioux.
The termination of the combat found the 29 blue coats strewn along their trail of retreat, destitute of life from pierced arrows. Swift Bear discovered a lone survivor hidden among a thick growth of willows, nursing the ugly arrow wounds. Raising the wounded soldier to his feet he supported and helped him stay on his feet until they reached James Bordeaux's trading post, where he was given first aid and transferred to the Army Post. He was in the coach with Lee, Louis Bordeaux on that eventful day of Sept. 5th,1877, when the wiley Crazy Horse was whisked away from Spotted Tail Agency by a body guard of Brule scouts behind the rumbling coach en-route for Post Robinson, Nebraska. [Details in last sentence questionable]. William J.Bordeaux, Custer's Conqueror, [1952 ?], following page 14.
