"He was on the north side of the river, and he knew he had to cross it to reach safety. Unfortunately, the only crossing places were near Standing Rock, from where he had just come. And the Indians knew it. So back he ran about eight miles with Indians in pursuit. To his dismay, upon sighting Standing Rock, he noticed Indians already waiting for him there. He knew another crossing place below the current Main Street bridge, so he turned and ran toward it. Unfortunately there were Indians waiting for him there also".
