Bates, Clara. 2 letters to Elizabeth Chumley Bates
Manuscripts
The majority of the letters were written by Kinzie Bates to his wife, Elizabeth Chumley Bates, in 1874 and 1875. There is a diary (a collection of 48 letters written to his wife) by Bates that was written in 1877 during the army's search for Sitting Bull and Lame Deer. The letters and diary entries record the US Army campaigns during the war with the Sioux Indians. Bates' letters tell in great detail the everyday hardships of military life and often mention Sitting Bull, Colonel Nelson A. Miles, General William Hazen, Major Henry Lazelle, the Cheyenne, the Sioux and the Brule Indians. His letters were written from several different locations including the Black Hills, SD; Fort Buford, ND; Fort Peck, MT; Fort Randall, SD; the Niobrara River, WY; the Powder River, WY; the Tongue River Cantonment, MT; and the Yellowstone River Valley.
