FORT LARAMIE "Shavetail"

Lieutenant Seiberts has disobeyed orders for what he thought was a good reason. A battle of wits with Squaw Dog follows. Seiberts was on an assignment to collect 60 horses. When he returns he tells Captain Quince that Indians have ambushed them and has only 35 horses and one man is dead. Captain Quince dresses him down for not following orders and for fighting to try to save the horses. However Quince accepts full responsibility for his actions to his superiors and then takes Seiberts as his second in command on his mission to recover the stolen horses, punish the Indians responsible for stealing them and killing Sergeant Limley and to prevent a blood feud.
