As the country tore itself apart in a “great civil war,” momentous battles were being waged at Mansfield, Atlanta, Cold Harbor, and a host of other locations. These killing grounds would become etched in history for their tales of bravery and sacrifice, but, in the West, there were only sporadic clashes between Federal and Confederate forces. Encounters at Valverde in New Mexico Territory, Mine Creek in Linn County, Kansas, and Sabine Pass in Texas were the exception rather than the norm.

Its aftermath included congressional investigations, bitter critics, and staunch defenders, – reprisal, revenge, the mustering out of a Colonel and the resignation of a Governor. Sand Creek also gave rise to a new generation of federal Indian policies, new treaties at the Little Arkansas and Medicine Lodge – and the next generation of fighters and fights: Beecher Island, Washita, Summit Springs, Palo Duro Canyon, Sappa Creek, and the Little Big Horn. Sand Creek is among our nation’s most profound historic places. The event remains a powerful, and to some, sacred symbol of sacrifice and struggle. Seeds of Conflict As Colorado Territory grew, so to did the Fremont’s Orchard foreshadowed war. By tension and fear between settlers and June, the murders of the Hungate family native tribes.

However, his friend, Governor William Gilpin, was not there to congratulate him for his achievements at Glorieta Pass.1 John Evans had replaced him. What had happened during his absence? In July 1861, fearing an imminent Confederate invasion of Colorado and eager to meet the pressing demands of Colonel Canby in New Mexico, W. Gilpin had requested Washington the permission to recruit Federal troops in Colorado Territory. The Government flatly refused, probably unaware of the gravity of the military situation in that remote part of the American West. Despite this, Gilpin took the initiative to raise a regiment of volunteers, the 1st Colorado. Unfortunately, as he did not have the necessary funds to organize this force, he resorted to extra-legal means. He issued drafts against the Government, in the hope that the Federal Treasury would later reimburse them. As a result, Gilpin gathered the tidy sum of $375,000, which he immediately spent on arming and equipping his new regiment. In any event, he had acted unlawfully, which earned him the wrath of his fellow citizens and that of Washington. Gilpin tried to convince his superiors of the necessity and usefulness of this loan, but President Lincoln found his conduct unacceptable and sacked him after a 1 During the battle of Glorieta Pass, New Mexico, in April 1862, while fighting was raging between the Confederate forces of General Henry Sibley and those of US General Slough, Major John Chivington of the 1st Colorado Volunteers accidentally discovered the location of the Confederate supply train near Johnson’s Ranch.

  • The Controversial Career of Edward W. Wynkoop
    The Controversial Career of Edward W. Wynkoop BY THOMAS D. ISERN On an autumn day in 1858 lanky Edward Wanshear Wynkoop disem­ barked from a sidewheel steamer in busy Leavenworth, Kansas Terri­ tory. Born on 19 June 1836 in Philadelphia, he had spent the first twenty years of his life in Pennsylvania, where his family was engaged in smelting iron. His grandfather, Henry Wynkoop, had been a member of the Continental Congress, and his great-great-great-grandfather had come from Utrecht, Holland, to settle in the New Netherlands in 1640. However, prominent lineage meant little to the restless youth . He pro­ ceeded from Leavenworth to Lecompton, the territorial capitol of Kan­ sas, to become a clerk for his brother-in-law William Brindle, receiver of the United States Land Office in Lecompton. In Kansas the Pennsyl­ vanian began a manifold western career filled with controversy at every stage. His character, a combination of reckless stubbornness and stern moralism, generated conflict wherever he went. Nowhere was this more true than in Colorado, where Wynkoop rose to prominence and made friendships and enmities that lasted for a lifetime.1 Brindle, Wynkoop's patron in Kansas, was a fiery advocate of the divine truth of Presbyterianism and the divine right of slavery. Wyn­ koop shunned involvement in the sectional controversy then burning in Kansas, but from Brindle he learned about the virtues of the Democratic party and the intricacies of the real estate business, and he mastered the Colt revolver. He soon acquired political connections in Kansas, in­ cluding the friendship of Governor James W .
