"Two Whistles (Ishichoshtupsh), born in 1856 was a Mountain
Crow of the Not Mixed clan and Lumpwood organization. At the age
of eighteen he led a party consisting of himself and two others,
which captured one hundred horses from the Sioux. During an outbreak
in 1887 Two Whistles was shot in the arm and breast, necessitating
the amputation of the arm above the elbow. His medicine of hawk
was purchased with a horse from a Sioux." -Curtis
