The Helena Independent
2/26/1884
The Indian Fight.
From particulars of the late fight on the
Muscleshell, between the five horse-stealing
Piegans and the pursuing whites and their
Indian allies, it appears that Ames, Tate,
Owens and Sidle came upon the Piegans in
such a way as to cover them with their guns.
The Indians said to take the horses—they
"no fight." Hearing this, Ames and Tate
dropped their guns, and the Piegans as
promptly fired, killing those two men and
slightly wounding Owens and Sidle. Sidle
fired with his gun and two revolvers, and
killed two Indians; Owens killed a third,,
and Plenty Coes, the Crow chief, who then
came up, killed a fourth Piegan and scalped
him. The one remaining Indian escaped
badly wounded. Several horses belonging
to the pursuers were killed in the fight.
