Steamer Trip from Bismarck to Fort Benton in 1869
The author recalls a June 1869 voyage aboard the North Alabama up the Missouri. Passengers rowed ashore at forts to view a tame Indian camp and a hair adorned squaw, witnessed a buffalo stampede through a river herd, and briefly disembarked at Musselshell stockade where a white woman scalped but survived. A white woman near the fort lost her scalp after insisting on going with men to fetch timber, later recovering. An Indian aboard admired a mirror before the journey concluded at Fort Benton.
