Hut-cho-im-pah, last of the medicine men, is dead in the Snake hills of the Creek nation. He was 95 years old. For half a century he had been one of the most turbulent spirits among the Indians in Oklahoma. He maintained his sway until his death. Hut-cho-nu-pah led the last rebellion of the Creeks in 1890. His faction was subdued by the Creeks themselves before the United States' troops got there. A battle was fought, Hut-cho-mi-pah's band of 50 was annihilated and he was condemned to death. But so great was the awe in which the old medicine man was held that no one could be found to be his executioner. With his adherents dead and himself imprisoned his influence was so potent that he compelled the eleciion of a friend as chief, and was pardoned. The medicine man fought for the northern forces during the civil, war. Always he asserted that he was under the special protection of the Supreme Being and claimed power over the lightning. Laura M.
