Description

Book Five: White Indians continued Connal Lee Swinton’s adventures with his Shoshone family in Great Salt Lake City in the summer of 1859. Connal Lee and his family decided to spend their summer building an adobe home on the acreage given them by a grateful church and territory.
They thought they were living in a peaceful, post war territory. Short Rainbow, their shaman and first wife, had a premonition. She warned her family to always carry loaded firearms, even on their family land.
Their family friend, Major Robert Harris married his housekeeper, Ingrid and adopted her two sons. At their wedding reception, Connal Lee learned of silver and gold discovered in the mountains on the western edge of the Territory of Utah. These mines would soon be called the Comstock Load.
They planted an orchard and small garden patch on their farmstead. The entire basin experienced another se-rious draught that year. The draught brought swarms of locusts into the valley. The ugly brown grasshoppers de-voured everything green they could reach.
Late one night a rowdy pack of fifteen drunken carousers left the bawdy houses on Whiskey Street heading back to Fort Floyd and nearby Dobie Town. They wanted more to drink so they stopped at the Globe Saloon, just down the path from Connal Lee’s homestead. Since it was closed, they shot it up then began firing at Connal Lee’s tent camp glowing uphill in the full moon. Connal Lee and his family grabbed their guns and halted the drunken attack. They had the drunks arrested.
With the growing influx of prospectors, adventurers, pioneers, and settlers, the Indians were forced off their traditional hunting grounds. They began attacking wagon trains and settlements in retribution.
Criminals escaping the California justice system joined packs of angry renegade Indians to prey on helpless wagon trains. Adventurers from Dobie Town and deserters from Fort Floyd swelled their ranks to dangerous propor-tions. Because they dressed like Indians to disguise their criminal activities, the packs became known as White In-dians.
Returning to the city from Fort Floyd, Connal Lee and Major Harris interrupted a White Indian attack on a small wagon train on State Road. One of the survivors was a six year old orphan boy, Kyle.
Kyle latched on to Connal Lee and wouldn’t let go.
