Three lost sons have returned home to the Wind River Reservation 135 years after they made the trek east to Pennsylvania, where they died and were buried. The repatriation of their remains in 2017 and 2018 came about through the efforts of their Northern Arapaho families, efforts detailed in the Wyoming Humanities-supported documentary
Home from School: The Children of Carlisle.
In early March 1881, Little Chief, Horse, and Little Plume boys aged fourteen, eleven, and nine left their Northern Arapaho families on the Wind River Reservation and traveled by train to the Carlisle Indian Industrial School. Little Chief’s father was Chief Sharp Nose, Little Plume’s father was Chief William Friday, and Horse’s father was Eagleman.
