their time and all have been led to
believe that few days would see
operations resumed. AS soon as ship

calls an incident in his life in the MIX
river country, Montana. He was then
private, and was carrying the mail be-
tween the camp and Fort Assinibolne.
One day I've met an Indian, and, riding
along together, the soldier proffered
him pipe, which the red man smoked
peacefully. After travelling thus ali
the morning, they came to creek ana
the Indian refined up, saying that he
was going down the stream, whereas
the mail route led upward. So they
separated, and, when the soldier hau
gone about so yards, he turned IN MS

his horror, he saw the Indian in tho

fire of the treacherous savage. inc
Indian then fled, with the soldier IN
