1 ene 1860 año - Traders kidnap and rape two Paiute girls

Descripción:

Traders at a Pony Express station on the California trail, kidnapped and raped two Paiute girls. The Tribal members attacked the station and killed 5 "whites" in the process of rescuing the girls. The Paiutes then killed the 43 "white" volunteers sent to avenge the 5 that were killed. After several minor battles involving an 800-man volunteer army from California, peace with the Paiutes was restored. Most Paiutes returned to the Pyramid Lake Reservation while others withdrew to southeast Oregon. The military created Fort Churchill in 1860 in western Nevada to maintain the peace.
