gan leaving camp in squads Of hundred

had thus got out of camp before the sus-
piciOns OF General Brooks were aroused.
Then he gave orders for the militia %
fan in. and within q few minutes the
latter were In hot persuit. The deputies
had arranged to rake the north side OF
the mountain their main point Of attack
and. with this in view, he'd drawn up me
bulk Of their force on the Colorado
Springs road at its base. The movement
against this point, however was 70 DE
supported by sertiers from three other
sides. and the balance Of the force was
distributed accordingly.
