Hiram Good information


From left to right: Sandy Young, Jay Salisbury, Hi Good (Seated) and "Indian Ned" Oroville, 1870

Harmon Augustus Good (c. 1836 – May 4, 1870) led a life as an “Indian hunter.” His closest friends in California addressed him as Hiram or simply "Hi" Good. On May 4, 1870, at the age of 34 he was killed by members of Ishi’s Yahi band, who, especially would have had the motive.[1] Good became a ruthless leader of volunteer vigilante parties, who battled the diverse mix of Native Americans in northern California during the Indian war years, 1857 to 1865. Many locals proclaimed him the “Boone of the Sierra.”[citation needed] According to Butte County historian George Mansfield, “Good, in particular, was held in the most bitter hatred among the Indians.”[2] In 1923 fellow Indian hunter Sim Moak recalled that “at one time Good had forty scalps hanging in the poplar tree by his house” and described Good adorning the outseam of his pants with scalps: “you can imagine a great tall man with a string of scalps from his belt to his ankle”.[3]
