been down 10 the CamaHche country, and
been driven back, when they were advised
by an old trader 10 come over to us, for pro-
lection. They did 30, about three hundred

ofthe great Pawnee Chief, RISING San, who.
being too old 10 venture on the war path,

also state that their whole force is distant
