Description:James W. Buel, 1849-1920, was a journalist, author, and editor, who was responsible for 54 works. He authored book on wilds of Africa and the American West in the late 19th century. Captain Payne was a , Kansas plainsman, mountain man, hunter, scout, Kansas Legislator, guide for wagon trains, civil war soldier, and agitator for forcible settlement of the Indian Territory of Oklahoma---he actually formed a colony in Oklahoma before it was recognized as being legal for whites to own land there. At the time of Payne’s settlement in Doniphan county, Kansas, in 1858 that now fertile and thickly populated section was the grazing grounds for vast herds of buffalo, deer, wolves and other wild animals peculiar to the plains. These he so hunted with much success and gratification, gradually extending his occupation southwestwardly until he had penetrated the Magillon mountains of New Mexico, explored the course of the Cimarron river of the Indian Territory, and become thoroughly acquainted with the topography of the great Southwest. He naturally drifted from hunting to scouting, and thenceforward he was engaged continually by either the Government or private expeditions, becoming the comrade of all the distinguished guides, trappers and hardy characters of pioneer life. His intimacy with Kit Carson, Wild Bill, Buffalo Bill, California Joe, Gen. Custer, and many others with national reputations, approached comradeship. In 1870 Capt. Payne removed to Sedgwick county, Kansas, and the following year was chosen to represent that district in the Legislature. In the year 1879 Capt. Payne became interested in a movement for the occupation and settlement of a district in the Indian Territory, which is known as Oklahoma which led to much conflict as is related in this book.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
