In February 1805,

Sacagawea had a son. His

name was Jean Baptiste.

She called him Pomp which

meant leader in the

Shoshone language.

The captains traveled with

Sacagawea, Charbonneau,

and Pomp in a 50 foot canoe

with a sail called a pirogue.

On May 14, 1805 while

travelling the pirogue was

tipped over by a strong

gust of wind. Sacagawea

saved many of their items

from floating away.

Finally they reached the

Shoshone territory. The

Shoshone were going to

attack Lewis and Clark's

expedition when they saw

Sacagewea and Pomp.

Sacagawea realized the

chief was her brother,

Cameahwait.
