Description

The loss of horses and supplies at Punished Woman's Fork left the Indians in need of replenishment. Their path of flight took them through the Republican and Solomon River tributary system in northwest Kansas. The area which the Cheyenne crossed in Northwest Kansas had a dense settler population. There were slayings and robbery in southwest Kansas during September, but the raids on the settlements in northwest Kansas, primarily in present-day Rawlins and Decatur Counties, were mortifying. Wild West Podcast proudly presents Cheyenne Exodus Part III: Raids on Sappa Valley.

Welcome to Wild West podcast where fact and legend merge. The Wild West Podcast presents the true accounts of individuals, who settled in a town built out of hunger for money, regulated by fast guns, who walked on both sides of the law, patrolling, investing in and regulating the brothels, saloons and gambling houses. These are stories of the men who made the history of the Old West come alive - bringing with them the birth of legends, brought to order by a six-gun and laid to rest with their boots on. Join us now as we take you back in history, to the legends of the Wild West.
