Gen. P. II. Sheridan, Commanding:
In answer to your telegram, re-
ceived on the 22d inst, | report that
after having made every effort to get
the judgment of the officers Of the
command, | am satisfied that the fol-
lowing numbers approximates as near
ly to the exact truth as possible: The
number killed at the Piegan village
was 173, of whom 120 were able bod
led men, and 53 women and children.
lao women and children were after
wards captured and released.
I believe every effort was made by
the officers and men to save the nom
combatants, and that such women
and children as were killed were
accidentally killed. The report pub
lished In Eastern I&pers Is wholly
and maliciously false. 1t seems in
credible that the false assertions of
two persons, neither of whom has
made any effort to inform himself In
the matter. should outweigh the
reports of those engaged in tho fight.
and who feel that they have moth
| ing to palliate or conceal In their
| conduct. All that the officers de-
mand of the authorities is full and
complete Investigation of the cam
paign, and less than this cannot be
conceded to them.
