The record — long form
Whitestone is the '63 — the 'September 3' that's the Sully, the '300-600 lodges' that's the attacked. The 'women' is the killed — the 'hunting' that's the men gone, the 'ravine' that's the fled. The 'burned' is the village — the 'half million pounds' that's the meat, the 'winter' that's the starved.
The 'not hostile' is the camp — the 'Sibley refugees' that's the mixed, the 'no orders' that's the Nebraska. The '156' is the captured — the '20 soldiers' that's the died, the '100-300' that's the Indian. Whitestone is the forgotten — the 'bigger than Wounded Knee' that's the dead, the 'two monuments' that's the both.
The file keeps Whitestone: the 1863 attack, the hunting men gone, the burned village, and the dual monuments.
Whitestone Hill is the archive's North Dakota file — the massacre's field.
