Six Cree men were tried and sentenced to death for their roles in the Frog Lake Massacre: Miserable Man (Kitahwahken), Bad Arrow (Manchoose), Iron Body (Nahpase), Little Bear (Apischaskoos), Walking the Sky (Pahpahmekeesick), and Wandering Spirit. They, and two Cree men condemned for a murder committed on March 29, 1885 just before the Siege of Battleford were hanged on November 27, 1885, at Fort Battleford, in the largest mass execution in Canadian history.
