President Young took the role Of
recruiting sergeant with Willard
Richards as clerk, and Immediately
a move was made 20 set about en-
listing those who were to make up
the required 500. Council Bluffs
was drained of its eligible men, but
the required number had not been
raised, hence Mount Pisgah was
called upon to furnish a portion
OF those wanted, as were also
several other camps, among them
Nau,oo and Garden Grove, saying
nothing OF the men that were picked
up As they lthc latter wendcd their
way to Council Bluffs 1t required
considerable exertion on the part Of
the recruiting officers to gather up
the five hundred wanted but after
diligent work, and through the God
like cXhortations Of President Young,

menccd, the date being July 10,
1870, when four companies and part
Of the fifth were mustered into ser.
vice at Council Bluffs. The com
plction Of the fifth company was
effected but few days later. The
companies were arranged alpha
betically as are all companies OF the
regular army, with the requisite
number Of officers and privates,

its line Of march from Fort Leaven-
worth early in August, three COM
panies starting off on the 18th and
18th and the other two on the I4th.
Kaw River was crossed in flat boats
and at Spring Creek, the five COM
panies got together and continued
on toward Santa Fe. Captain Allen,
to whom the Mormon boys had be-
come very much endeared, died at
Fort Leavcnworth on the 23rd-a
circumstance which caused the Bat
talon to utter sore regrets The
next in order of rank was Captain
Jefferson Hunt, but that gentleman $
place was soon usurped by Lieuten-
ant a. J. Smith who was not so
much favorite with those constitu-
ting the Battalion. The Arkansas
river was reached on Sept. nth,
I,,5, and the stream followed in its
meandcrings for a distance OF about
100 miles. A number of families
accompanying the Battalion marched
with Captain Higgins and a guard OF
ten men to Pueblo, located further
up the river for which they left the
main body Sept. 10th, amid the
murmurings and displeasures OF
quite a number Of the Battalion.
This move was made to provide
suitable winter quarters for those
travelling thitherward, and in due
course OF time, they arrived at their
destination one man short, Norman
Sharp having died on the way,
The trip from the Arkansas river
to Santa Fe was one of extreme
hardship for members Of the main
company. Their rations were
scanty, the drinking water bad and
many of them were attacked with
the fever and suffered to a very
great extent at the hands of DR..
George r. Sanderson, who was the
rcgularlyappointed battalion surgeon.
This man gave the Mormon sol
dlcrs all kinds of abuse and bad
medicine and some OF them sue
cumbed to the sickness which had
oycrtaken them. One case in par.
licular is well worthy of citation as
it shows in however mild a form,
the suffering and privatiOns the

some time, was close at hand. Red
River was reached on the End of
October and on the 3rd a council of
officers was called and that body in
formed by the commander that he
had received orders from General
Kcarney to the effect that the com
mand must reach Santa Fe bv the
10th Of the same month, otherwise
they would be discharged, In order
to carry this order out fifty OF the
strongest men from each company
were selected, together with some of
the best teams and equipments,
these to form an advance guard and
get to Santa Fe as quickly as it was
possible. This division OF the Bat
TALON was accompanied by Colonel
Smith and DR.. Sandcrson and after
the latter's departure the sick got
along better than formerly and were
soon convalescent, Notwithstanding
their lack OF the doctors care Cd
and treatment. The first division
arrived at Santa Fe on the evening
OF October 9, 1870, while the others
who followed close behind under
more favorable circumstances than
before, reached the same place two
days later, October I2th. In the
meantime the detachment under
Captain Higgins wended their way
to Pueblo, where they established
winter quarters as contemplated.
Other than the death of Private Nor
man Sharp, no particulars Of the
journey are recorded.
