Painted Rock and Sioux Duel on the Mississippi Bluff
A 1825 account recounts a Sioux chief and a Pawnee warrior near a Painted Rock on the Mississippi above Black River. The two clash in archery and horseback maneuvers amid ritual tobacco use, ending with the Pawnee killing the Sioux in a rapid, decisive fight. The piece contrasts tribal honor, weaponry, and the vivid scene of the encounter. A brief ledger note from a Honesdale merchant lists historic prices for common goods, followed by an aside on a proposed New York state printing venture in Albany.
