SITTINTAC SIVINGANKK 



[B. A. E. 



Sitting Bull continued unreconciled. 

 It was through his influence that the 

 Sioux refused to sell their land in 1888; 

 and it was at his camp at Standing Rock 

 agency and at his invitation that Kicking 

 Bear organized the first Ghost dance on 

 the reservation. The demand for his ar- 

 rest was followed by an attempt on the 

 part of some of his people to rescue him, 

 during which he was shot and killed by 

 Sergeants Red Tomahawk anfl Bullhead 

 of the Indian police, Dec. 15, 1890. His 

 son, Crow Foot, and several others, with 

 six of the Indian police, were also killed 

 in the struggle. Although a chief by in- 

 heritance, it was rather Sitting Bull's suc- 

 cess as an organizer and his later reputa- 

 tion as a sacred dreamer that brought 

 him into prominence. According to 

 McLaughlin, "his accuracy of judgment, 

 knowledge of men, a student-like disposi- 

 tion to observe natural phenomena, and a 

 deep insight into affairs among Indians 

 and such white people as he came into 

 contact with, made his stock in trade, and 

 he made 'good medicine.' " He stood well 

 among his own people, and was respected 

 for his generosity, quiet disposition, and 

 steadfast adherence to Indian ideals. He 

 had two wives at the time of his death 

 (one of whom was known as Pretty 

 Plume), and was the father of 9 children. 

 His eldest son was called Louis.

Siupam (or Suipam?). A tribe met by 

 Fr. San Buenaventura y Olivares and Fr. 

 Espinosa in Apr. 1709, at San Pedro 

 Springs, San Antonio, Texas. The ran- 

 cheria in which they were living was 

 composed of this tribe, Chaulamas, and 

 Sijames, and was estimated by Fr. 

 Espinosa at 1,000 persons. (The Chaula- 

 mas were probalily the Xarames, for in 

 the Spanish of that day eh and x, as well 

 as I and r, were frequently interchange- 

 able. Moreover, this was the home of 

 the Xarames. ) The Pampopas, who had 



accompanied the padres from Medina r., 

 remained at the rancheria when the lat- 

 ter continued their journey northeast- 

 ward (Fray Isidro Felis de Espinosa 

 Diario, 1709, MS). When the mission- 

 aries returned a few days later the ran- 

 cherias had been moved down-stream, 

 an indication of the unfixed character of 

 their villages. The tribe is perhaps the 

 same as the Siguipam, of the Texas coast 

 country, who later were at San Francisco 

 de la Espada mission. In 1754 a portion 

 of the tribe deserted to the Rio Grande 

 missions, but were brought back by Fr. 

 Bartholome Garcia (MS. in Arch. Col. 

 Santa Cruz, K. Leg. 19, no. 34). See 

 Seguipam. (h. e. b.)
