March 28, 1834
In the morning, complete winter; heavy snow. Wind north. At seven thirty, 21°F [−6.1°C]. Kipp’s wife returned from the village today with her child. The most respected Indians assembled at Kipp’s and deliberated yesterday’s unpleasant occurrence, the smashed-in window. Old Addíh-Hiddísch came to be drawn. The soldiers went to Ruhptare on the basis of the [window] discussions and fetched the trader there, Bathiste d’Iguies, together with all his merchandise, so [that] no harm might come to him. The Mandan [window-breaker?] had gone out of the way [sic] to the Hidatsa villages. Evening calm, clear, and cold.
