Of the Cheyenne outbreak. He says the
fugitive party consisted of eighty-ninc
men, one hundred and twelve women and
one hundred and thirty.fOur children, and
then continues:
"The general conduct Of these Indians
was the same rs that Of the remainder Of
their people, q . > but they always
complained about their rations. -
During the latter part ofthe winter and the
early part Of the spring the beef was very
poor, and was much complained Of by all
the Indians; and It was really bad. From
tho LIST Of July to the LIST Of September the
issue OF rations was very unequal. The
full ration Of flour was issued but twice,
while beef was issued but constantly.
There was q little -four and no coffee or
sugar, The ntions lasted for
three days Of the seven for which they
were issued"
