had followed the large Indian trail, which was found
to lead almost due east TO the Tongue River. Fol-

miles, it again turned due east through a
rough and difficult country, the chief features

its mouth. Here again it strikes toward the east

going north or by breaking into small bands and
sneaking back to their reservations. They have
burned the grass behind them as to stop pursuit
