When 3-4 braves when out to avenge a father's death, Chief Joseph allowed it. As he prepared for war he met in discussion with Oliver O. Howard, but still the message he received was the same, move to the reservation lands. As Chief Joseph was rushed across the river with little notice, he had to leave many horses and cattle behind, and many died in the crossing of the river for it had swelled past the banks and was a bad crossing season.
