| The last survivor among the six Crow scouts was Whiteman Runs Him, also known as Crow-Who-Talks-Gros-Ventre. He has an earlier name, too, White Buffalo That Turns Around.
His army career was similar to that of the other scouts. He was with Goes Ahead and Hairy Moccasin with the Custer column on the ridge and in the hilltop fight. He made his home in the Lodge Grass area, and it was he who gave up his name when the Rev. Mr. Petzoldt, pioneer Baptist missionary, was adopted into the tribe. A step-grandfather of Joe Medicine Crow and a friend of Brave Bear, Cheyenne warrior who fought in the battle, he was the source of much of Mr. Medicine Crows early information on the famous fight. He died on June 2, 1928, and is buried at the Battlefield. |
