General Ashley's 1823 expedition[edit]

with in notation [14][15][16] it says "no bone was broken", but then several paragraphs down it said "he has festering wounds, a broken leg"... 45.53.110.212 (talk) 15:09, 16 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

In popular culture addendum[edit]

The season 1, episode 15 of Wagon Train, titled "The Cliff Grundy Story," written by Aaron Spelling, seems to be loosely based on or inspired by the story of Hugh Glass, with guest character suffering a near fatal injury in a buffalo hunt, presumed to be a goner and the others want to leave him behind, except for the show's hero, Flint McCullough who insists on staying with him, despite hostile natives in the area. Sure enough he recovers, the other fellow who stayed behind dumps out their water and steals their horse, forcing the pair to endure a long hike through the desert, during which they fight a bear which Cliff Grundy kills with a knife. Finally, they make it to a fort and find the man who stole their supplies was killed by a Native American. Wikiuser847843636 (talk) 02:23, 11 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Need a reliable source, original thought can not be used. Cheers, 〜 Adflatuss • talk 04:05, 11 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yount?[edit]

The name is mentioned once in the article, referring to "Yount's story"; but with no further explanation, and the name does not appear in the cited source. So who is (or was) Yount? George C. Yount? Harry Yount? Or some other? Haploidavey (talk) 17:40, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, it does appear under the linked article sources, so I've added full name, George C. Yount (we've an article on him) and other details. I think that will do. Haploidavey (talk) 18:30, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Managed to find an answer elsewhere; the currently linked domain is up for sale; but http://hughglass.org/later-life/ seems to be live and actively maintained. It mentions testimony of Yount as a good friend of Hugh Glass. I've no idea how reliable the source is. Haploidavey (talk) 18:06, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
