Abstract

Sioux, Fox, Chippewa, Sac and Winnebago Indians once roamed these hills. They left many mementoes of their past, including a name: " Lake of the Dead Man." An early homesteader came upon the small lake, discovering a lone Indian who permanently resided there. Patiently communicating by signs scratched on a sandy portion of the shoreline, the old Indian revealed some of the history of the lake and his tribe.
