There was about 150 horses heads in a circle, and about 100 yards from that was an indian village, all wigwams, curiously constructed, capable of containing several thousand indians. Had to carry wood. Came 30 miles and camped. A man has just come up and told us that the indians has stolen 4 mules and 3 horses and left him without team and 1 thousand miles from home with only 25 dollars of money in is pocket. Took an early start.
Roads sandy along the Platte river.
Only had 1 shower since we left home. Roads good but dusty. Saw a wolf this morning, and a buffalo head not long been killed. Saw some indians' graves at a distance. Came 5 miles and turned out for 2 hours.
