stoned by three drunken Indians and two
whites. The Indians seeing several little
girls picking wildAowers, mounted their
ponies and rode up to them for the pur-
pose of frightening them, and riding
their horses in between the children sep
arated them. John Donahoe, knowing
that the Indians were drunk, and sur
missing what they were up to, went to
the aid of the children, when the Indians
and Donahoe had battle with rocks.

results Of the battle were: The Indians
got severely bruised up, and Simpson
was hit on the upper part of the nose
with rock and got the corner of his left
optic dressed in mourning. If the rock
had struck Simpson an inch lower it
would have smashed his nose all over
his face and ruined his beauty forever.
