Kirk, Simon J. (H75-176)

Manuscript, n.d. Kirk was the grandson of Chief Oihduze of the Sisseton-Wahpeton Dakotas. His manuscript opens with a short history of the Sissetons and Wahpetons under the leadership of Chief Oihduze and continues with his own experiences as a youth. Among the subjects covered is the reaction of Standing Rock Reservation Indians to the death of Sitting Bull.
