Skeleton Cave Massacre, which took place in Arizona between the Yavapai Indians and the US Army. Hoomothya was orphaned as a
result of the slaughter of his extended family at Skeleton Cave. Captured by the troops who killed this band of Yavapais, he
was taken in as a temporary ward by Captain James Burns, who gave Hoomothya the anglicized name of Mike Burns. This collection
contains background information on Mike Burns; the Carlisle Indian School in Carlisle, Pennsylvania; and the Skeleton Cave in
Arizona. The collection includes Burns’ correspondence with various individuals about his memoir, requests for assistance in
its publication and several versions of the Burn’s manuscript. | | | | Repository: | Sharlot Hall Museum Library & Archives | | | | Subjects: | Skeleton Cave Massacre | United States Indian School (Carlisle, Pa.) | | | | Matches:
