Ohiyesa's Story of Crazy Horse
and the Grizzly Bear
A Santee Sioux's story of Crazy Horse's youth

From Indian Heroes and Great Chieftans, 1926.

Note

Santee Sioux author Dr. Charles Eastman in native dress while a student at Dartmouth College ANOTHER STORY told of [Crazy Horse's] boyhood is that when he was about twelve he went to look for the ponies with his little brother [Little Hawk], whom he loved much, and took a great deal of pains to teach what he had already learned. They came to some wild cherry trees full of ripe fruit, and while they were enjoying it, the brothers were startled by the growl and sudden rush of a bear. Young Crazy Horse pushed his brother up into the nearest tree and himself sprang upon the back of one of the horses, which was frightened and ran some distance before he could control him. As soon as he could, however, he turned him about and came back, yelling and swinging his lariat over his head. The bear at first showed fight but finally turned and ran. The old man who told me this story added that young as he was, he had some power, so that even a grizzly did not care to tackle him.

Testimonial:

I used 100 voices entries as evidence for the use of sign language among all the different groups involved in Custer's Last Stand. The paper is still quite rough but I found 100 Voices very useful.
