News Articles







The Minnesota Pioneer says that a report has come from Lacqui-Parle, that over forty Indians – men, women, and children – were found frozen to death, having eaten their dogs, moccasins, skin tents, and everything that could afford the least sustenance. It was feared , last summer, that the loss of crops by the floods, would result disastrously to them. [The New York Times, 19 April 1852]
