 2012 was the 150th anniversary of the Dakota Conflict of 1862

"In a week, and mostly within forty-eight hours, 1,000 persons perished in excruciating pain, 2,000 more were maimed sufferers from the outrage, and 8,000 who before were comparatively well-to-do, were thrown, as paupers, on the charity of individuals, or on the bounty of the state. A stream of 30,000 fugitives rushed down the Minnesota valley,seeking protection in the interior towns of the state, or fleeing to the neighboring states, and even to their New England friends. Not less that $2,000,000 worth of property was destroyed within a belt of two hundred and fifty miles, and in ten counties, nothing was left." - Biography of Henry H. Sibley, Commander of the Indian Expedition.
