Brave Indian Exchange and Rescue Told by Veterans
A vivid 1856 frontier tale details the Geisel family massacre by eight to ten Indians led by a chief at a fort in California territory. After Mrs Geisel and her child are taken, a concerted exchange with the chief leads to a dramatic reunion at the mountain path as Brown and a council of war secure their release. Also recounted is Congressman Jerry Simpson’s 1878 Lake Michigan shipwreck rescue tale, where he and crew survive a brutal gale, cling to rigging, and are saved by lifesavers before giving a famed public speech.
