Fallowing Apache tradition Geronimo set fire to his family's belongings and then went into the wilderness to morn the deaths (Biograhpy.com,2015). While doing this he heard voice speak to him saying "No gun will ever kill you. I will take the bullets from the guns of the Mexicans … and I will guide your arrows."
