"LAST DANCE FOR IRON BREAST"
Iron Breast, Piegan, dances for the last time with the Society of Bulls.
The society was an organization of older Piegan men who gathered to
celebrate by depicting the movement of the buffalo during a hunt. The
Society of Bulls disbanded after one member fell during the dance, got
up to follow the others, but in a short period of time died. This caused
the remaining members to regard the dance with suspicion, and it was
never repeated.
