"""Sioux Chief Long Wolf & Family"", ca. 1880.~ “A Stranger Hears Last Wish of a Sioux Chief
Long Wolf went to London with Buffalo Bill's show and died there in 1892. Thanks to the struggles of a British homemaker, his remains will be returned home.”

May 28, 1997 |WILLIAM D. MONTALBANO
TIMES STAFF WRITER
BROMSGROVE, England — “After a restless century in a melancholy English graveyard, the remains--and the spirit--of a Sioux chief named Long Wolf are returning to his ancestral home in America because one stranger cared.

The stranger is a 56-year-old English homemaker named Elizabeth Knight, who lives in a small row house with her husband, Peter, a roof repairer in this Worcestershire village near Birmingham.

""I am a very ordinary sort of person,"" she said.

The sort who writes letters, not e-mail, who makes no long-distance phone calls, has no fancy degrees, has little worldly experience, who never gets her name in the papers. The sort who turns detective and historian and raises a transatlantic fuss because her heart is moved and her sense of fair play is outraged.

This is the story of how heirs of Middle England and the Wild West have joined forces to fulfill a dying wish made more than a century ago.

For Knight, the story began the day in 1991 that she bought an old book in a market near her house. There was a 1923 story by a Scottish adventurer named R. B. Cunninghame Graham that began this way: ""In a lone corner of a crowded London cemetery, just at the end of a smoke-stained Greco-Roman colonnade under a poplar tree, nestles a neglected grave.""

In the grave, under a stylized cross and the howling image of his namesake, lies Long Wolf. He died at 59 in a London hospital on June 11, 1892, the victim of bronchial pneumonia contracted in what was then a crowded, dark, gloomy, industrial city as far as anywhere on Earth from the Great Plains of North America.

""I was moved. I kept taking the book down, imagining Long Wolf lying there amid the ranks of pa

In the heart of the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota, amidst the rolling plains and expansive skies of the Lakota homeland, stands Iron Hail, also known as Dewey Beard, alongside Little Chief of the Miniconjou Lakota. This powerful image, captured in the annals of history, serves as a poignant reminder of the strength and resilience of the Lakota people.
Iron Hail, with his weathered features and solemn gaze, embodies the spirit of a warrior and a leader. His presence commands respect, a testament to a lifetime spent defending his people and their way of life. Little Chief, standing beside him, carries himself with a quiet dignity, his eyes reflecting the wisdom passed down through generations.
Together, Iron Hail and Little Chief symbolize the unbreakable bond of brotherhood and unity that has sustained the Lakota people in the face of adversity. Theirs is a legacy of courage and endurance, forged on the battlefield and in the quiet moments of prayer and ceremony.
In the background, the vast expanse of the Pine Ridge Reservation stretches out, a land steeped in history and tradition. It is a landscape that has borne witness to both triumph and tragedy, where the echoes of the past mingle with the hopes and dreams of future generations.
As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of the indomitable spirit of the Lakota people, whose resilience and strength continue to inspire us today. Through Iron Hail and Little Chief, we honor not only their legacy, but the enduring spirit of all Indigenous peoples who have walked these lands since time immemorial.

Adam BeachOn this day in 1972, actor Adam Beach, Anishinaabe, was born. He’s perhaps best known for his role as Victor Joseph in Smoke Signals, but his decades-long career includes many parts in TV shows & movies. He leveraged his success to create a nonprofit in Winnipeg that trains at-risk Native youth in various roles within the film industry! It takes a community to uplift our culture!...
