Arikara villages near present-day Mobridge — Joseph Whitehouse: October 9, 1804
Stormy weather kept the expedition camped in place for the entire day, providing an opportunity to hold a council with the local Native American nation. Two Frenchmen were found living among the natives, who all behaved in a friendly manner toward the party. No travel was undertaken, as the day was devoted to diplomacy and waiting out the storm before continuing the journey.
