About
How did a dispute between Indian agent Meeker and Utes who preferred to hunt instead doing gardening work finally erupt into the White River massacre and the captivity of Josephine Meeker and her mother? How did these women survive a horrifying and lengthy captivity?
In 1879, two well-known Colorado newspapermen, Thomas Fulton Dawson (1853-1923) and Frederick James Volney Skiff (1851-1921) would publish a history of the White River war based on first-hand accounts, under the title "The Ute War: a History of the White River Massacre and the Privations and Hardships of the Captive White Women Among the Hostiles on Grand River."
