ON THE OWYHEE.
The Adventures of "A Scouting Party
The Last of Nick Harrington.

The Adventures of a Scouting Party
The Last of Nick Harrington.
On the l4th instant Lieutenant Nor
ton aud 10 enlisted men, including
your correspondent, left Camp Nc
Dermit on scouting expedition
to the Owyhee river, where the party
arrived on the 10th instant and found
the timbers of the bridge near the ford
had been carried away. AS the bridge
had been built for double track, We
cat the timbers in two, and unhitchile
the mules, led them over and dragged
the wagons across. The current at the
crossing was swift and dangerous and
great care is essential in driving a team
over. Our offamute turned short and.
crowdiug the line mule, turned the
wagon into deep water, when it was
carried away by the current and upset,
and three of the mules were drowned.
The remaining three mules and team
ster Schater were saved only by the
greatest exertions. The wagon con-
tanned rations, blankets, etc., and we
had two days work in the water to get
the stuff out and get it and the wagon
across the stream. as it was impossible
to get up the steep bluff where the
wagon sunk. Through the exertions
of Lieutenant Norton, privates Dono-
van aud Howard, and Sergt. Harmon.
and others who AVIAN. with the team,
the three mules were saved.
On the 10Th courier met US with
orders to rejoin our company without
delay, as we had to holda ourselves in
readiness to march at a moments notice
to the scene of the Indian troubles in
Idaho.
On the bank of the Owyhee, where
the road turns to the ford, we found q
small tin box containing a sheet of a
memorandum book. ON which the fol.
lowing was written in ink:
"THAcKER's. RANCH. June 6, 1876.
DEAR SIR. Rwish your would come
out and visit, my wife. She 10 DESTROYS
to- sse% youa. Coma. this% forenoon.
NNss.- JAMS GRsEse,,'"
The silver state. [volume] (Unionville, Nev.) 1870-1903, 1877-06-25

On the other side, written in pencil,
was the following:
"These clothes belong to Nicholas
Harrington, who was drowned this day
at this spot while trying to cross the
river with horse.
j. M. GREEN, - chamberlain.
June &c, 1876"
Nearer the river where the old road is
cut into the bank we found the clothes
which we supposed were referred to in
the note. and further down the bank
shallow grave covered with willows.
Some Indians are staying at the old
ranch and have planted potatoes all
round there.
Fish are very plenty, easily caught,
and like Doc Sintax s steed, very bony.
Will keep you posted on the war
news when we get to the front.
