Mangus (II)

"The fifth and final band of Apaches belonged to Mangus, a Warm Springs Apache
and son of the legendary chief, Mangas Coloradas. The eleven-member group had allied
with Geronimo and the Resistance until the fall of 1885, when Mangus and his band, tired
of being on the run, had left. Near Camp Apache, Mangus had surrendered to Captain
Charles Cooper. Officers put Mangus and his followers on a train bound for Florida, at
Holbrook, the site where the Fort Apache inhabitants had entrained almost two months
earlier. The soldiers manacled the group's leader as they believed he might attempt an
escape.
As the train passed through southeastern Colorado, Mangus managed to slip out
of his handcuffs and jumped through a window of the moving train. The impact knocked
him unconscious. The train backed up and the soldiers retrieved him. The doctor who
examined him determined he was fine, but the physician failed to note Mangus' broken
arm. " ~• from a doctoral dissertation of the 1970's see: page 5 of https://ttu-ir.tdl.org/server/api/core/bitstreams/3829ce3f-608c-49b...
