I have marked the winters upon the edge of this ancient bow of mine. It was my grandfather's bow; he made it in the days of his youth, and in his old age gave it to me. I made this first little crease in it to mark my eighteenth winter, the winter in which I for the first time met the enemy they were a war party of Crows and fought them, and took my first scalp. Count the creases; see, there are five tens, and one; it is, then, just fifty winters ago this very Moon of New Grass that we experienced a day of terrible disasters.

This is the message of Shri Ramakrishna to the modern world: “Do not care for doctrines, do not care for dogmas, or sects, or churches, or temples; they count for little compared with the essence of existence in each man which is spirituality; and the more this is developed in a man, the more powerful is he for good. Earn that first, acquire that, and criticize no one, for all doctrines and creeds have some good in them. Show by your lives that religion does not mean words, or names, or sects, but that it means spiritual realization."

This is the first-hand account of one of the worst wagon train massacres in the Old West. After enduring an attack on their wagons, survivors of the assault fled on foot, continuing West as best as they could manage with no supplies. Terror and starvation afflicted some of them to the point of cannibalism. Only 10 of the original 44 members were eventually rescued by an Army detachment more than a month after the attack. Left by the Indians is an eyewitness account of the Utter-Van Ornum wagon train massacre on the Oregon Trail.
