The brave man pays no attention to it. The following is from the pen of Major General Curtis, dated Fort Sully, June 2, 1866: " The whole of the three thousand Sioux jcamped about us gave me early information of their design to have the annual sun dance at this time and place, the season of the year the trees in full leaf having now arrived, and they wished me to inform Colonel Recor, the commander of the sol- diers, that however boisterous their demonstrations might be, they would all be peace...able and of a pious character. On yesterday, June 1, the dancing was delayed at intervals to allow tor- tures to be inflicted. Two or three men stood over the devotee with needle and knife, very quietly performing penance, according to the customs of all these sacerdotal rites, as follows ; First, they cut the arms in several places by striking an awl in the skin, raising it and cutting out about half an inch ; this is done on both arms, and sometimes on the breast and back. Then wooden setons (sticks about the thickness of a common lead pencil) are inserted through a hole in the skin and flesh.
