SNELLING. Indian Agent for the Sioux of the St. Peters. , r^ FORT SNELLING, FROM 1819 TO During the fall of 1826 all the troops at Fort Crawford were broug...ht up to Fort Snelling, rendering the garrison very full. On the night of the 28th of May, 1827, while Flat Mouth, Chief of the Pillagers, and a detachment of the Sandy Lake Indians were quietly encamped in front of the Agency House, and under the guns of the Fort, nine Sioux attacked them, wounding eight of the party. The Sioux were immediately notified that as they had insulted the flag of the United States they must make ample satisfac- tion. On the next day they delivered nine of the assailants, and two of them were immediately shot.
