Folks, this the account of four white men slaughtered by a band of Shoshone Indians in January of 1911, a period when most American could scarcely believe Indians would still go on the warpath. These sheep and cattlemen lived in an area known as Surprise Valley, Nevada where they were slaughtered. Soon, a Nevada State Police Posse was rounded up and a search ensued for the killers. This was the final Indian battle against the white man but it had re-kindled some bitter memories of bygone massacres and for a tie, the west and much of the country remained tense…all because of an angry Indian leader named Shoshone Mike who wanted to demonstrate he was a warrior.” You will want to read this seldom found story entitled: THE LAST INDIAN MASSACRE By Leonard Ross Please read this. This is an overlooked story I found in an unusual and different magazine. For this item, I am making it available with a Buy It Now opportunity so you don’t have to wait to see if it's yours. There were many a western story published – the common ones about Cowboys and Indians are listed on Ebay every day but the rarer ones about a late massacre of white men by a group of the Shoshone Indian Tribe are seldom found. Collectors treasure them and their price guide value rises every day. They are hard to find. I hunt them out because really the better, untold and rarer stories were published in the rest. Here’s one of ‘em. Following my retirement, I have dedicated my remaining hours to indexing the Genealogy of our western heroes. During my research, I discovered that thousands of our kinfolk lay unfound and unrecognized on some book dealer’s shelf gathering dust. Because Old Western History and Memorabilia was printed before computer indexing, I index every item I sell. This complete index will be bound and included in this offering at no additional cost. Humbly, I am trying to keep our history alive. I hope you appreciate the effort. THE LAST INDIAN MASSACRE By Leonard Ross Folks, sooner or later – Genealogists are going to realize that their family kinfolks are lying on some dealer’s dusty shelves. If I can contribute to finding one little name or photo of that long lost ancestor you have been waiting to find, its worth all the time I spend. As a tribute to the honor of our American Ancestors and our Native American Indians, my indexed listings will include all names mentioned in the story from this time on.
