The Connor Battle was part of the Powder River Expedition meant to punish the Sioux, Cheyenne, and Arapaho Indians. In The Connor Battle, about 200 US soldiers backed with 2 mountain howitzers and 70 Omaha and Winnebago scouts attacked an Arapaho village that lacked most of its warriors. The warriors were off raiding the Crow and the US soldiers annihilated a village comprising mostly women and children although some Indian men were present who fought fiercely. The US soldiers captured more than 500 ponies, burned the entire village to the ground, and destroyed the Arapaho's winter supplies. This account is an excerpt from the diary of Captain H. E. Palmer who took part in the battle. His diary was originally published in Coutant's History of Wyoming. Booklet is clean and bright with only minimal wear. Now protected in plastic sleeve.
