The N of men dying from
thirst is peculiar. They seem to be
taken with spasms. and, clutching at
vacancy, fall with a cry To the ground;
some even bite their own flesh with
such fierceness as To take a piece out.
n pathetic picture was presented in
one case when a man fell from his
horse and became rigid i'm the death
struggle. His faithful and a~ffectionate
horse, who himself was almost dead
with thirst. turned and licked the face
of his dying rider with the gentleness
OF a house dog. The horses overcome
by thirst would be attacked with blind
staggers and plunge headlong or sink
down with a groan and perish as il i'm
despair.
As the night closing this awfu day
came ON and the ~stragglers were com
ing In. the officers did all i'm their pow
er to arouse the men to make an ef-
fort 10 return to Fort Concho. This
meant a long and weary march going
over the same ground that they had
already Travelled. With what strengt
they had they could have never
reached the post. but it was the only
thing they could try. Altogether 20
men had now assembled. and these
