Cheyenne Kid #64
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Little Chief," the Cheyenne Kid encounters a proud young Native American warrior who challenges him to combat over a white pony, believing the animal will make a great gift for Chief Grey Bear. After defeating the warrior and presenting the pony to the chief, the Cheyenne Kid is rewarded with a place of honor at the tribal fire and receives a tale from a visiting storyteller. The story concludes with the Little Chief receiving a vision from a great white-feathered bird, which carries him away as his tribe watches in amazement. In a secondary plot, soldiers discover that traders have been supplying Native Americans with poor-quality rifles and rotted grain, prompting the Cheyenne Kid to pursue the unscrupulous traders.
In the rugged frontier, a lone caravan falls to a thundering herd of buffalo, leaving only a baby survivor—taken in by the Cheyenne and raised as their own. As he grows, the boy, known as Little Chief, dreams of proving himself among the warriors, driven by a quiet determination to earn his place. When he tames a wild spotted pony and offers it to the chief, his courage earns him an unexpected honor: a seat at the council fire to hear a visiting storyteller’s tale.
When the Cheyenne Kid returns to Fort Bent from a visit with the tribes, he discovers a ruthless newcomer named Trask has opened a trading post—and is systematically cheating the Indians with defective goods and spoiled supplies. Determined to expose Trask's scheme and protect the peace that William Bent has built, the Kid recruits the tribes to help him gather evidence of the trader's fraud. It's a test of wits and courage as the Cheyenne Kid moves to drive a con man out of the West before his greed destroys the trust between settlers and tribes.
