CHAPTER XXVIII
[304] Ma-za-ku-ta-ma-ni was at this time the President of the Rev.
Riggs' Hazelwood Republic. This Republic was a rather unique attempt at self-government upon the part of Christianized Indians of the Yellow Medicine Agency under the guidance of the Rev. Mr. Riggs. It was "a respectable community of young men who had cut off their hair and exchanged the dress of the Dakotas for that of the white man....
They elected their president and other officers for two years, and were recognized by the Indian agent as a separate band of the Sioux."--Hubbard and Holcombe's _Minnesota in Three Centuries_, Vol.
II, pp. 254-257.
[305] John Other Day won his t.i.tle to fame in the annals of Minnesota by the part he took in the terrible Sioux Ma.s.sacre of 1862. Certainly nothing else is needed to prove the worth of a Christian Indian than this act of his. The whites and Christian Indian refugees were in deadly peril of ma.s.sacre at the Yellow Medicine Agency when to "John Other Day ... was entrusted the agency people and the refugees ...
sixty-two souls in all, and as the ... revelry still came up from the stores on the bottom ... he moved off to the east with his white friends, crossed the Minnesota and skillfully covering the trail bore them away to safety ... without rest or delay he hurried back to the scene of the ma.s.sacre to save more lives and a.s.sist in bringing the miscreants to justice."--Robinson's _A History of the Dakota or Sioux Indians_ in the _South Dakota Historical Collections_, Vol. II, pp.
278, 279.

Concerning this costume Mrs. Sharp has since remarked that "the style and fit might not have been approved by Worth, but it was _worth_ everything to me."
