450 PICTURE-WRITING OF THE AMERICAN INDIANS. 
Fic, 599. 
Fic. 600. 
Fig, 601. 
Fig. 596.—Bird, a white trader, was burned to death 
by the Cheyennes. Cloud-Shield’s Winter Count, 
186465. He is surrounded by flames in the picture. 
His name was probably Bird, which was pictorially 
represented as usual. 
Fig. 597.—Red-Lake’s house, which he had recently 
built, was destroyed by ‘fire, and he was killed by 
the accidental explosion of some powder. American- 
Horse’s Winter Count, 1831232. This figure is intro- 
duced here in connection with the simple fire on the 
one preceding to show the artistic portrayal separately 
of a steady flame and of an explosion. 
Fig. 598.—Two-Face, an Oglala, was badly burnt by 
the explosion of his powder horn. American-Horse’s 
Winter Count, 186061. Here is another view of the 
explosion of gunpowder. 
Fig. 599.—A Two-Kettle Dakota, named The-Breast, 
died. Swan’s Winter Count, 1836—37. 
Mato Sapa says: A Two-Kettle, named The-Breast, 
died. This is the same character as is given elsewhere 
for abundance, plenty of buffalo, But here it has a 
wholly personal application. 
Fig. 600.—Left-Handed-Big-Nose was killed by the 
Shoshoni. American-Horse’s Winter Count, 183940. 
His left arm is represented extended, and his nose is 
grotesquely conspicuous, 
Fig. 601.—Roman-Nose. Red-Cloud’s Census. The 
large and aquiline nose is exhibited, which was very 
liberally translated ““Roman Nose,” and the term be- 
came the popular name of a celebrated chief of the 
Dakotas.
