"The Weekly Arizona Miner" (Prescott, Ariz.) (Nov. 30, 1877):

"Many of [the San Carlos Apaches] are old scouts who have already served a term with Lieutenant Rucker, and who having got rid of their 'gweenbacks,' as they call it at 'coon-can' or monte, made up their minds to go soldiering again for Chiricahua scalps and U.S. paper currency."
