Old Jude and the Crow hunt in the plains encounter
An expedition narrative recounts Old Jude singlehandedly fending off Crow warriors on a rugged hillside. He disarms and defeats one rider, topples another with a rock, and chases two fleeing Crows, fatally wounding them with precise rifle shots. The group then salvages horses and rifles before continuing the buffalo hunt.
