In 1856. when Pierce was President
and jeff Davis Secretary of War,
through the Gadsden purchase the
United States became possessed of what
is now Arizona, embracing large desert
mcnt concluded to purchase camels tC
be used rs pack animals in traversing
these vast wastes, and accordingly
David D. Porter, aftcrward Commo-
dore, was commissioned to go abroad
and make the purchase. AT smyrna
in Asia Minor, the Commodore met Iii
Jolly, and through him bought seventy.
six camels, and also engaged the serv-
ices of Hi jolly, who was then quite Il
young man. By u vessel the camels
were shipped direct to Indianola, Tex,
where they were landed the same year,
thence across Texas to Albuquerque,
where the animals arrived in fine con-
dition, under charge of Hi Jolly.
Here an expedition was being fitted out
under command of Lieutenant Ned
Beale, and the camcls were first brought
into active service. The object
i've point was Fort TETON, Cal, and the
route ran along the thirty-ffth parallel.
The expedition consisted of forty-four
citizens, with an escort of twenty sol
diers, and the camcls performed the
packing, in some instances carrying rs
much as one hundred gallons of water
to the animal, and going without a
drop themselves for nine days at q time.
They arrived safely 1T TETON, then
made the return trip to Albuquerque,
then back to TETON, all the time being
under the charge of Iii Jolly. firing
OF the camels, the Government con.
.demned them, and they were sold mt
Benecia to two Frenchmcn, who took
them To Reese River, where they were
used in packing salt to Virginia City.
Afterward the animals were brought
back to Arizona, and for some time
were engaged in packing orc from the
Silver King to Yuma; but through some
cause or other the Frcnchmen became
disguised, there being no market for
camels just then, and turned the camcls
loose upon the desert near Maricopa
Wells, and to-day they and their dc
scendants are roaming through the ella
Valley, increasing and multiplying and
getting fat upon the succulent cacti and
greasewood with which that country
abounds. Last summer two carloads
were captured by Maricopa Indians and
sent east, where the market is said TO
be good for camels.
Hi Jolly settled down at Fort TETON,
and remained there until during the
war. when he joined the California
column and with 1t returned to Arizona,
where he has resided ever since. Here
he has principally been in the employ
Of the Government rs interpreter,
packer and scout, his last service being
under Captain Overton. - Tombstone

MORTGAGE SALE.

VIcToR c. BuRsHAM,
Attorney for Mortgage,
The Mineral argus., 1884-06-19

at their worst, he rode up to the fort in
company with his sixty dogs.
Isaac Haden had a cool head and a
very daring spirit. He was in the habit
of taking in situations at a glance, de-
Gliding quickly what was to be done,
and then doing it at any risk that might
be necessary. AS soon as he saw how
the men and women were placed he
cried out TO his dogs, and at the head of
his believing pack, charged upon the
flank of the Indians. The dogs did the
work with a spirit equal to the masters.
For each to seize a red warrior and
drag him to earth was the work of a
moment, and the whole body was soon
in confusion. For a moment they had
all they could do to defend themselves
against the unlocked assault of the
fierce animals, and before they could
beat off the dogs the men of the fort
came out and Joined in the attack, so
that the women aud children had time
to make their a inside the gates, only
one of them a Mrs. Phillips, having
been killed.
The men, of course, had to follow the
women closely, as they were too weak
in numbers to risk a battle outside. Ii
thew had done so, the Indians would
have overcome them quickly, and then
the fort and everybody in it would have
been at their mercy, so they hurried in
70 the fort as soon as the women were
safe.
But the hero who had saved the peo-
pie by his quickness and courage vas
. left outside, and not only SO, but the
savapes were between him and the fort.
He had charged entirely through the
war party, and was now beyond thelr
line, alone, aud with no chance OF help
from any quarter.
His hope of saving himself was very
small. indeed; but he had saved all
those helpless women and children anu
e he wasa brave enough fellow to die will
ingly, for such a purpose as thst, IL he
3 must. But brave men do not give up
7 easily, and young Haden u not mean
! to die without a last effort to save MN
self. Blowing a loud blast upon us
