Isa-tai and Comanche chief Quanah Parker lead…
June 1874 CE
Isa-tai and Comanche chief Quanah Parker lead approximately two hundred and fifty warriors in an attack on a small outpost of twenty-eight buffalo hunters in the Texas Panhandle called Adobe Walls on June 27, 1874.
The encampment consists of just a few buildings and is occupied by only twenty-eight men and one woman.
Though a few whites are killed in the opening moments of the Second Battle of Adobe Walls (the first had been in 1864), the majority are able to barricade themselves indoors and hold off the attack.
Using large caliber buffalo guns, the hunters can fire on the warriors from much greater range than the Comanches had expected, and the attack fails.
