LEON SPRINGS. Nov. 8, 1s59.-This afternoon, at
l O'Clock two men stayinr with me had been ont
making hay two miles southeast from here near
the Salado Water Holes, at the so.called Penner
Bottom when they saw fourteen Indians ali
mounted going southeast Nv neighbors and my
self are ready and willing to intercept the Indians
at point two miles from here, where they must
pass on their return, as soon as we are informed
that they are driven back, or are on their return
| with booty. F. SIMON.
PSI have the fullest confidence in the state
| ment of the two men who brought the report: one
| of them was free from excitement. as he was con-
cealed in such way as to see them plainly with
out being seen. The Indians were travelling
slowly. SO that there can be no mistake as to
the number f. s.
| Since receiving the above, we learn from good
authority that two men have been killed by the In
dians in this locality We were informed that
they were out on COW hunting, and two of them

are Killed. we 90 NOT vouch Tor the truth OF the
| above, but it is more likely that it may be SO.
