"On September 9, 1858, U.S. Army troops rounded up between 800 and 1,000 horses (accounts vary on the actual number) from the herd of a Palouse chief and, under orders from Col. George Wright, slaughtered the animals on the banks of the Spokane River. The act, meant to intimidate the Palouse, Spokane, Yakama and Coeur d'Alene tribes, who had been battling with Army troops in the months prior, was not only a symbolic takedown of the tribes' stature that would endure for generations, but also resulted in starvation among native people the following winter."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
