Comanche, Kiowa and Caddo Indi- ans in Texas kidnap 9-year-old Cyn- thia Ann Parker and kill her family. Adopted into the Comanche tribe, she lived a happy life, marrying a war- rior and having three children, until Texas Rangers recaptured her in 1860. They forced her to return to live again among Anglo-Americans after killing her husband. • On May 16, 1849, the New York City Board of Health finally is able to establish a hospital to deal with achol- era epidemic that, before it ends, kills more tlian 5,000 people. The disease spread when boat passengers escaped from a mandatory quarantine. • On May 18, 1861, an obscure Cali- fornia newspaper relates how first lady Mary Todd Lincoln took it upon herself to appoint Mr. W.S. Wood as superintendent of Public Buildings. The article suggested that Mrs. Lin- coln had been smitten with Mr. Wood's handsome features, luxuriant whiskers and graceful carriage. • On May 20, 1873, Levi Strauss secures the necessary patents for can- vas pants with copper rivets to rein- force the stress points. Unable to sell a large supply of canvas in the Califor- nia mining camps, Strauss had hit on the idea of using the durable material to make work pants for miners. • On May 17, 1943, the crew of the Memphis Belle, one of a group of American bombers based in Britain, becomes the first B-17 crew to com- plete 25 missions over Europe. A fictional film about the B-17, called "Memphis Belle," was released in 1990. • On May 21, 1955, unknown singer Chuck Berry paid his first visit to a recording studio and cut "Maybel- lene." The song became a No. 1 R&B hit and a No. 5 pop hit, It helped that DJ Alan Freed played the record for two hours straight during his WINS radio show.
