	Battle of Elkhorn Tavern, Arkansas
		The disastrous battle at Elkhorn Tavern (Pea Ridge), Arkansas on March 6-8, 1862 had much to do with the Confederate soldiers in the Army of the West referring to their commanding officer, Major General Earl Van Dorn, as “General Damn Born” after their defeat.

		The flag was recovered by Missouri soldiers who took it with them to Van Buren, Arkansas; they refused to return to the 17th Arkansas, reasoning that “men who throw their colors away didn’t deserve any”.

	USGS Description of the Little Missouri River of ND
		In North Dakota, the Little Missouri River enters the southwestern corner of the State and flows in a northerly and then easterly direction to its confluence with Lake Sakakawea near Killdeer.
		The river flows through the Little Missouri National Grasslands and Theodore Roosevelt National Park and is the only river that the State has designated as a scenic river.
		Because the river channels of the basin are in the easily eroded shale and sandstone of the badlands, large quantities of sediment are transported downstream.

	EPA: Federal Register: Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; Final Rule To List the Topeka Shiner as Endangered
		The last record of the Topeka shiner from the Arkansas River basin, excluding the Cottonwood River watershed, was in 1891 near Wichita, Kansas (Cross and Moss 1987).
		Cross (1970) indicates that some of the areas where depletion of the species has occurred also coincide with areas having poor aquifers resulting from historical changes in drainage patterns affecting the quantity of water.
		Listing of the Topeka shiner would require a review of potential section 404 actions which may impact the species, which is not a requirement as long as the species remains unlisted and unprotected by Federal law.
