Coverage
"Pine Bend Village. The cornfields and village of the Sioux chief, Medicine Bottle, occupied the land between this point and the river from 1838 to 1852.
This friendly chief, uncle of the Medicine Bottle executed in 1865, with his band moved to the Redwood Agency after the Mendota Treaty of 1851 and died before the Sioux Outbreak of 1862. This marker also stands on the abandoned roadbed of the St. Paul and Southern railway."
