Vé'ho'énȯhnéhe (Lame White Man) was born into the Southern Cheyenne but moved north after the Sand Creek Massacre of 1864.

[1] It has been written that during the battle, Lame White Man wore a captured cavalry jacket, which was found tied to the cantle of a saddle.

[3] Lame White Man was shot and killed by U.S. soldiers on the west slope of Battle Ridge, where he had led a charge.

Later a Miniconjou Lakota warrior (believed to be Little Crow) mistook him for an Army Indian scout and scalped him before realizing his mistake.

Lame White Man was the only Cheyenne chief to die at the Battle of the Little Bighorn.
