He is often referred to as the last Chief of the Comanches, but the truth of the matter is that the Comanche people never elected him chief. In fact, there was no such thing as Chief of the Comanches; each band of Comanches had their own chief. After the surrender of the Comanche people and their placement on the reservation, Colonel Ranald S. Mackenzie appointed him Chief of Comanches. He was the son of Peta Nacona, a noted Comanche chief, and Cynthia Ann Parker, a white woman captured by the Comanches. Quanah refused to sign the Medicine Lodge Treaty of 1867 and went on a savage eight year war against the whites. It has been said that he never lost a battle during those years.


 


In 1874, he had his closest brush with death when he was shot twice by buffalo hunters in a battle at Adobe Walls.


 


In 1875 it became very clear to Quanah that the white settlers were far too numerous and too well armed to be defeated. Mackenzie sent Jacob J. Sturm, a physician and post interpreter, to solicit Quanah's surrender. Sturm found Quanah, whom he called "a young man of much influence with his people," and pleaded his case. Quanah rode to a mesa, where he saw a wolf come toward him, howl and trot away to the northeast. Overhead, an eagle "glided lazily and then whipped his wings in the direction of Fort Sill." This was a sign, Quanah thought, and on June 2, 1875, he and his band surrendered at Fort Sill in present-day Oklahoma. The Comanches were sent to a reservation in southwestern Oklahoma. The reservation agents saw it as their duty to eliminate all tribal cultures and replace them with the ways of the white man. Quanah refused to give up his multiple wives or to cease the use of peyote. He negotiated grazing rights with Texas cattlemen, and he invested in railroads. After his appointment as chief, the older chiefs resented his youth and particularly resented his white blood.


 


In 1887, Yellow Bear and Chief Quanah Parker, went to Ft. Worth, Texas to discuss overdue money from leased tribal reservation lands. The two of them checked into the most modern hotel in the city, the Hotel Pickwick. Yellow Bear decided to retire early, but Quanah went with a friend for a social visit. Two hours later, Quanah returned to the hotel room, and retired for the evening. In turning off the gaslight, it is speculated either he blew the light out, not realizing the consequences, or he did not turn the valve completely off. Whatever the reason, he awoke sometime later, roused Yellow Bear, and both struggled across the floor, Quanah falling near a window, but both lost consciousness. Almost 13 hours later, the scene was discovered, and Yellow Bear was dead, and Quanah survived.


 


When he signed the Jerome Agreement in 1892, the tribe was split into two factions; those who thought all that could be done had been done; and those who blamed Parker for selling out. He invested wisely, owned a large home in Cache, Oklahoma, known as the Star House. He had five wives and twenty-five children. He was the wealthiest Indian in the United States. He was highly respected and hunted with Theodore Roosevelt. When he died in 1911, he was buried next to his mother and sister in the Post Oak Cemetery in Oklahoma. In 1957, all three bodies were relocated to the Chief's Knoll in the Fort Sill Cemetery, in Lawton, Oklahoma.

The Army counted five dead today, 05 March 1943, removed from the charred wreckage of a B-17 bomber which crashed into Mount Elden near the San Francisco peaks and rocked the wilderness with a terrific explosion early Thursday morning.



The aircraft left the Army airbase at Blythe, California, a few hours before on a routine flight.



Base public relations officers listed the dead as:



First Officer Keith O. Martin, Jr., 22, Columbus, S. C., pilot.
Second Lt. Ralph Eugene Majors, 23, Canton, O., copilot.
Second Lt. Frederick Christian Ruhl, 23, Pittsburgh, Pa., copilot.
Tech. Sgt. Walter H. Ehlers, 29, Ogaliala, Neb., engineer.
Tech. Sgt. Robert E. Sanford, 22, Natchez, Miss., radioman.



Army authorities flew to the scene late yesterday and identified the bodies removed from the debris by Sheriff Perry Francis' searching party.



Shortly after the plane plummeted to earth residents within 50 miles of the spot reported a wooded strip of the mountainside had caught fire and flames were plainly visible.



An Army board is investigating cause of the accident.

US Congressman. He represented his native North Carolina's 13th District for 14 consecutive terms in the US House of Representatives, serving from 1815 until his death. Lewis was born in Surry County and graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1808. His first elected office was as a member of the State House of Commons (1813 and 1814). As a career Congressman he owed his longevity to moderate views and an unerring sense of political trends, switching party affiliations when necessary. During his 27 years in the US House Lewis was an early Republican, a Crawford Republican, an Adams candidate, an Anti-Jacksonian, and finally a Whig. For six of his terms he was Chairman of the Committee on Claims and during the Twenty-Third Congress he chaired the Committee on Territories. He died after a brief illness in Washington DC, where a cenotaph stands in his memory at Congressional Cemetery. His brothers were US Congressman and Mississippi Territorial Governor Robert Williams and US Senator John Williams.

Dale was barring down rock at the 3350 level when a large wall of rock and dirt estimated at two tons fell on him. Seeing it coming (he told his father who reached his bedside early Saturday morning), knowing he was unable to get out of the way, he dropped his bar and rolled but did not get out of the way. The other man working in the same level with him had gone for a hose and was just returning when he heard the crash. He was uninjured.

Dale was taken at once to the Homestake hospital where he was given every care. Both legs were broken between the knee and the ankle and the third vertebra in his lower spine was crushed which paralyzed him.
