Kihue, known as Bill Moose, remained in Ohio after his tribe was relocated to Kansas and Oklahoma.
Once upon a time, the people who were called Huron occupied much of the land from what is now Toledo south to Dublin and Columbus, to the place where the Scioto River met the Olentangy River.
By the 1840s, the reservations were gone. The last of the Wyandots were removed in 1843 by canalboat and then by steamboats to the West. With no reservations – federal, state or local – remaining, it would seem that Native Americans were gone from Ohio. In 1878, he joined the locally owned Sells Brothers Circus and went on the road to several states and foreign countries as an “Indian rider.” After nine years with the Sells Brothers, he worked at other fairs and expositions and made the acquaintance of Buffalo Bill Cody at the Columbian Exposition in Chicago in 1893.
“During my father’s lifetime at Upper Sandusky, the Wyandot camp of Indians numbered about 400. Leatherlips, a friend of the white man, and a powerful and influential chief of that tribe, met his death on June 1, 1810, at a point about 12 miles north of Columbus on the Scioto River Road. Chief Pancake, who succeeded him, was the next and last chief of the Wyandots in this territory.
“For nine years I traveled with the Sells Bros. Circus and while with the show made a tour of the United States, Canada and Australia. I have never been married, am a Republican and cast my first vote for Abraham Lincoln. I attribute my long life to living close to nature and observe the custom of my tribe in sleeping out of doors during the summer, and one night of each month throughout the winter with only one blanket for cover. On my next birthday I will be 90 years old.
