Not long after his defeat at the second Battle of Bull Run, US General John Pope was sent west to end what was termed Indian uprisings in Minnesota. The results were horrible for Sioux. Pope's troops took Sioux prisoners and executed by hanging 38 Tribesmen in Davenport, Iowa. It was at the time the largest mass hanging in US history.
