Cheyenne River Sioux

Famous quotes containing the words cheyenne and/or river:

    Under a world of whistles, wires and steam
    Caboose-like they go ruminating through

    To Cheyenne tagging . . . Maybe Kalamazoo. See Vagagonds

    Cole Thornton: Just a minute, son.
    Mississippi: I am not your son. My name is Alan Bourdillon Traherne.
