Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Texas Rangers vs Comanches

270jrk I read NYATI recently as well. Interesting. I wish we could know more about how each tribe differed form one another. The Tonkawas helped whites kill as many Comanche as possible and seem to be perhaps the only tribe- or people- the Comanche wanted no part of.

Herman was captured by Apaches then ended up killing their medicine man and escaping. He was young and spent months isolated and more or less thriving. Was captured by Comanches but accepted after they believed he killed the Apache who they never trusted. I recall him saying the Apaches were somber people without humor but Comanches enjoyed a good laugh. Scary I suppose as the laugh might come at your expense in the form of some inflicted pain.
