February 1877 CE
The influential Brulé headman Spotted Tail also agrees to lead a peace delegation out to meet with the "hostiles."
Departing his agency on February 12, 1877 with perhaps two hundred people, Spotted Tail moves north along the eastern edge of the Black Hills.
They soon find a large village of Minneconjou under Touch the Clouds near Short Pine Hills on the Little Missouri River.
After several days of councils, they agree to go in and surrender at the Spotted Tail Agency.
