                <text>The Humboldt Volunteers, or Humboldt Dragoons, were a militia company formed by residents of the Eel River Valley, at Hydesville, Humboldt County, California in early February 1860. Seaman Wright was elected Captain and E. D. Holland, First Lieutenant of this unit. Part of the unit included; James D Henry Brown and Henry P Larabee (pictured above) This company had several clashes with bands of Indians in the Eel River Valley, during February 1860. They were said to have perpetrated the Indian Island Massacre, on the night of February 26, 1860 and others at other sites around the Bay and on the Eel River. News of these massacres brought a storm of criticism that compelled the Humboldt Volunteers to disband in the latter part of 1860.&#13;

                <text>This newspaper article discusses an attack on Indian Island by local white men, resulting in the indiscriminate slaughter of the entire tribe at the rancheria, as well as several “Mad River Indians” passing through. It goes on to address the massacre as a seemingly coordinated attack, identifying several other villages (names listed within) that occurred on the same night. The viewpoint of the author implies some sympathy towards the killing of the defenseless women (squaws) and children, however, that murder of the indigenous men was considered justified in the protection of the settlers’ home and family. It provides estimates on the death tolls &amp; locations, while simultaneously pleading that no further violence occur towards those deemed vulnerable and defenseless.</text>

                <text>Below is Eureka's letter of apology for the Indian Island Massacre also called the 1860 Wiyot Massacre. Below is the written apology by Mayor Frank J Jager, mayor of Eureka from Nov 2 2010 to present. &#13;
&#13;
Dear Members of the Wiyot Tribe:&#13;
&#13;
In February 1860, 154 years ago, citizens from Eureka participated in what has been described as a massacre of unfathomable proportions. On that winter night long ago, the Wiyot people of Humboldt Bay were attacked. That incident resulted in the death of scores of mostly women and children on the tribal island in Humboldt Bay. Worse yet, this attack occurred during the Wiyot Renewal Ceremony to bring healing to the Earth. The ceremony was never finished.&#13;
&#13;
Today the people of Eureka are pleased to see the World Renewal Ceremony, that was cut short in 1860, will at last be finished. The ceremony will take place on island land deeded to the Wiyot people in 2004.&#13;
&#13;
As Mayor of Eureka, on behalf of the City Council and the people of Eureka, we would like to offer a formal apology to the Wiyot people for the actions of our people in 1860. Nothing we say or do can make up for what occurred on that night of infamy. It will forever be a scar on our history. We can, however, with our present and future actions of support for the Wiyot, work to remove the prejudice and bigotry that still exists in our society today.&#13;
&#13;
Sincerely,&#13;
&#13;
Frank J. Jäger&#13;
&#13;
Mayor</text>

                <text>Here is a photo of Annie Sam, one of the few survivors along with her family of the Indian Island Massacre. Her sister Jane, a brother, and their mother all hid in the brush and escaped with their lives. Annie, who became blind at an early age, lived in late life at Bucksport, where, despite her lack of sight, she was known as “an immaculate housekeeper” who even did her own sewing.  &#13;

                <text>Here is a photo of Jane Sam, one of the few survivors along with her family of the Indian Island Massacre. Jane married Alex Sam, a well-known and well-to-do Wiyot from the mouth of Mad River. And in 1921 it was Jane who preserved the history of what had happened, provided multiple eyewitness reports of the attacks. Below is bits of her detailed account&#13;
&#13;
"The dance was over [in] one day. The wind blew and rough weather. On account of this nobody went home. That night after the dance all were asleep. There were four houses and one sweat house….The door was blocked by white men as the people were asleep, not expecting anything to happen. They were not on the lookout. When they found out what was up they began to scatter and was struck down by clubs, knives, and axes, all met the same fate, children, women, and men. I got out and hid in a trash pile. That was how I was saved."&#13;
&#13;
When I got away from the trash pile I sneaked away near the edge of the marsh by a blind slough [and] laid there. I did not hear any noise or scream from the people. Must of all been killed, sure enough. These white men took all things such as beads, baskets, fur, hide, bows, and arrows. All the property belonging to the dead that was not taken was destroyed by burning. Women and children were killed when they lay asleep or they did not make any effort to escape, as they thought the white men would not molest them. A few men got away, the exact number being forgotten. At break of day I saw two boat loads of white men going across to Eureka. These were the men that done the massacring.&#13;
&#13;
It took all the forenoon to gather up all…[the] bodies [of] men, women, children, and babies [that] could be found. One living child was found in the arms of his dead mother and today he is [still] living….It took all day to bury the dead. The next morning they was through burying what bodies were buried on the Island. The rest of the bodies…were taken to Mad River for burial. Some were taken to the Peninsula and some to South Bay, some to Freshwater. That same night there was a massacre at the mouth of Eel River and at the South Jetty where men, women, and children were killed. What got away were taken to Bucksport [Fort Humboldt] by the soldiers. I do not know how long they were kept at Bucksport. From there we were taken to the Indian reservation….1&#13;
