PLENTY OF AGENCY BLANKETS BUT NO DEAD
INDIANs-A STORY TOLD BY MONTANA
SCOUT.
From the Butte (Montana) Miner, August 10
We had the pleasure OF a call yesterday from Mr..
Andrew McKendry better known as 'sBig Andy, the
Scout" Mr.. McKendry arrived in on Friday last,
direct IRON General Gibbons command which he left
on the 20ih July. Mr.. McKendry lett Fort Ellis with
General Gibbons command tho LIST of
April and was one OF the party in advance
who discovered the bodies of General Custer
and his men. On that day Muggns Taylor,
companed by young Logan son OF Captain Logan, Of
tho Seventh infantry few PAGES in advance OF the
main body OF the scouts, when they were hred by
the Indians They Tell back, md shortly after Lieu
tenant Roe's company came up and a number OF In
dams were seen on hull near at hand. Lieutenant
Roe twce sent back 10 General Gibbon Tor permission
To charge, which was wisely refused, and when
the command came up the Indians broke from cover
every side, rapidly retreating and throwing away
their packs. A few moments later they came sight
OF Cutsers battle field and saw At distance Of about
two miles what appeared like pieces Of white spar
side hill nearer approach revealed the sad fact that
these were the bodies OF Custer and his meu all
stripped and nearly all horribly mutilaed
Mr. Mckendry states that Custer never reached the
Indian village. but with all his men slaughtered on
the hill tho bodies lying asthcy fell in line OF battle.
Major keno's command was found. receiving. has
been before published their first knowledge OF Cusers

the remains OF the fated band the command fell
back few miles to camp. Mr. Mckendry started the
same day Tor old Fort C. Smith, making the trip there
and back without seeing any Indians He
ports that The village, by actual measurement
OF the engineer corps, was TOUR aud three

found branded Fort PecK, " .'Standing Rock"

secuted every direction for ten miles adjacent
scene OF battle and only knows seventy-hve dead
Indians being fouud so the reports that came few
dayssnce OF 500 dead Indians being found proba-
bly, untrue.
Mr.. McKendry's estimate of the number of Indians
engaged the tight Is IRON i've TO thousand and
he had previously spent time at the Red Cloud
and Spotted Tail agencies and large bodies of
Indians he feels certain that he has

many others IN the command
