In the wake of the Battle of Little Big Horn and the death of George Armstrong Custer and his men, the U.S. Army launched a massive campaign to pursue the victorious Lakota Sioux and their allies, specifically Chief Sitting Bull. Nelson Miles, a Civil War veteran and still not forty years old, was a leader in this campaign and saw several successes, culminating in the capture of the Nez Perce leader, Chief Joseph, in late 1877. Several months before that success, Miles and his forces fought Crazy Horse and his Sioux warriors on January 8, 1877, at the Battle of Wolf Mountain (also called the Battle on the Tongue River), achieving an important strategic victory. The following month, Brig. Gen. Alfred Terry, commander of the Department of the Dakota, issued his General Order No. 11, congratulating Miles on his victory, of which this is a contemporary manuscript copy. Since no army field press was available, it is likely Terry had several copies of the order written out. Terry writes the Adjutant General of the Division of the Missouri: "I desire to invite the attention of the Lieut. General to the great vigor & zeal which has been displayed by General Miles, his officers & men with extremely limited means and under the most disadvantageous circumstances he has persistently pursued and harassed the hostile Indians & though this report is meagre in details, I think it is evident that he has gained a very important success." In a portion of the text directed to Miles, Terry writes: "I thank you most heartily for the zeal, vigor, & ability which you have displayed and I congratulate you upon the well merited success which has rewarded your efforts." Excellent manuscript evidence of the army's war against the Sioux after Little Big Horn, and of the psychological need to publicize and commend military victories in the aftermath of the Custer disaster. Old folds, with slight splitting in outer edges of horizontal folds. Small chip (with no loss of text) at fore-edge of one fold. Very good.…
