What Dr. McGillicuddy Said

Valentine McGillicuddy, the physician at Fort Robinson who attended Crazy Horse in his final hours and later served as the Indian Agent at Pine Ridge, left accounts of the events that are among the most detailed from an American perspective.

His accounts describe the scene of the dying man with specificity: the presence of Worm, the presence of Touch the Clouds, the nature of the wound.

He was clearly moved by what he witnessed.
