borhood, who was in the battle, and 10 whose
statements implicit reliance may be placed.
While upon this subject. | will give a brief
synopsis of the extent of damages done by
the Comanches while they were down in
August.
The whole number Of persons killed in
Guiding black, white and MeIicans was "a.
The number of horses taken 1900. The
exact amount of property destroyed at Linn
vile is unknown. bsai II probably did not ek-
coed $1,000. A:;Ae battle Of Cosa Blnnco,
nea- y : ~ari!.e. IS Indians were killed and
one Texan, and at the decisive battle of
Plumb Creek sixty were left on the ground,
perhaps 80 MORALLY wounded.-besides the
recapture of 700 horses and all the Linnville
property. | had the honor to be in this bat
tie and can speak with confidence. The
battle ground was Is miles in length, and
many wounded Indians crawled into the
brush and have since been found. | have
no doubt but 80 or 100 were slain.
Major Howard is now in the mountains
with $50 Texans, and we are a%nxIou-ly lis
tening to hear the result of his campaign.
which | trust will be suspicious TO our coun-
try.
Congress met on the I'd instant. but | have
no news from it. This is not looked upon
as very important except the reelection OF
all Judicial officers in the republic.
You will please present this hastily writ,

esteemed friends among them.
