Sacajawea interview
Storyboard Text
- Well, I remember someone saying that they started in St. Louis a few days before my husband, and I joined them. So, I don’t know how many times they stopped before that. I think we stopped over 70 times.
- Do you remember how many stops you guys had to make for resupplies?
- There was many cold nights and some mornings we would wake up to supper heavy dew and sometimes in the middle of the day we would feel a strong gust of wind out the middle of the blue. I do not think that anything serous very came after them. Mosted days were fair weather and sometimes it was a little cloudy. We also hit some snow in the beginning, there was also some cases of rain and hail.
- Did you guys run into any storms or intense winds that might have affected the trip?
- There were a few deaths I think that most of them were Indian deaths. I only remember one death within the group and that was in the beginning we do not know how he died but we just found him dead when we woke up, I think his name was Floyd, ya that was it Charles Floyd. I know for a fact there were many injuries and I remember getting sick and had to rest for a few days
- Do you know if there were some major injuries or deaths?
- During the winter there was many fights between travelers but nothing to serious came out of them. We did have many incidences with Indians that caused a few deaths.
- Tell me was there any fights that you guys encountered on your trip?
- I don’t think we did, if we did, we probably just shot something to eat.
- Did you guys every run out of food at any point?
- I was chosen I did not have a chose I was chosen by the chief of my tribe (also my father) to go with them to help them get through the rough terrain better.
- What was the reason that you even want on the trip, was there something that you were going to get after the trip?
