Pete joined the Mormons and wanted to marry a white woman. Jo Smith said he could get no revelation for him. . . He made a lantern with a gourd and man's face on it, tied it to the end of a kite and flew it in the night from the bluff of the river called the Hog's Back, near where the Mormons were baptizing. Many were much frightened and some of the Mormon women fainted. Pete was made much of by them.
