Summer 1862
Tä´dalkop Kyäkán K’ádó, “sun dance after the smallpox,” or sometimes simply Tä´dalkop K’ádó, “smallpox sun dance.” It was held a short distance west of where the sun dance had been held in 1858, on Mule creek, near the junction of Medicine-lodge creek with the Salt fork of the Arkansas. No event of importance marked this summer, which is indicated only by the medicine lodge.
