he known that Gibbon had been warned
and was on his trail he would have
probably taken the advice of his lieu
tenant and would have been able to
distance even this pursuit.
General Gibbon, general by brevet
and colonel in command of the 7th in
fantry, upon receipt of Geographic or
ders from General Howard, had mobil-
lied his command with all possible
haste. Company F from Fort Benton
and Company D from Camp Baker were
ordered to report at Fort Shaw at once.
Upon their arrival there Gibbon took
Company K, the Shaw garrison, and
with the three companies proceeded
with all possible speed to Fort Mis-
soula. He made the march of $50 miles
across the mountains in seven days,
reaching Fort Missoula on the afternoon
of Aug. g. Company G from Fort Ellis
had come by different route and, with
Rawn's command, gave Gibbon a force
of II officers and 146 men. A wagon
train was organized in Missoula and
with this force Gibbon started in pur-
suit of Joseph on the morning of Aug. 4.

was: Company B, Lieutenant Bradley,
in advance, with Major Catln's civil
ian company next. and the main body
of troops in the rear General Gibbon
had a howitzer which he ordered
brought forward as quickly as possible
in the morning. The march was a quiet
one. along the west bank of Trail creek,
and at o'clock on the morning of Aug.
8 the command reached a point directly
opposite the camp of the Nez Perces.
The approach of the whites was not
suspected. The camp was wrapped in
slumber, the camp fires smouldered not
200 yards from the narrow trail on the
steep sidehill, where the troops rested.
On the hill above the trail grazed the
pony herd of the Indians. So confident
was Joseph that he had distanced the
whites that there was no night guard
over these horses They might nave
guide. advised against the attempt,
thinking that there were guards and
an encounter with them would alarm
the entire camp. There Gibbon and his
command rested, waiting for the break
of dawn to make the attack upon the
village. 1t was a time of suppressed
excitement. The long chase was over
and the battle was about to begin.

tunately Catlin and his men were well
acquainted with the country and Joe
Blodgett knew every foot of the trail.
As soon as Major Catlin learned that
the Indians had escaped across the
hills he sent back a courier with the
news to General Gibbon, who advanced
his command and made camp in Ross
Hole. This was the evening of Aug. Z.
Lieutenant Bradley with a detail of
mounted soldiers and citizens was sent
across the divide to locate the camp as
soon as possible. This party crossed the
range and reached the valley of the up

the beautiful stream that is known as
Trail creek. early the next morning.
They discovered where the camp of the
Indians had been made. but Joseph had
left before the scouts arrived. They
made camp at the foot of the divide
and waited for the main column, which
came up in the late evening, having

camp of the Indians, which was much
nearer than had been anticipated. The
camp had been made just below the
point where Trail creek joins Ruby
creek, in the broad meadow that has
already been described. This discovery
was reported to General Gibbon upon
his arrival, and at II o'clock on the

stoned officers killed were Lieutenant
Bradley, whose death has been de-
scribed, and Captain Logan. who was
shot by squaw in the attack on the
village while at the head of his com

The reasons for the withdrawal of
Joseph on the night of the 9th have
been variously given. 1t is generally
believed that he had the informa ton
OF the near approach of Howard
though he could not have obtained it
from his scouts or they would have
known that Gibbon was close behind
them One story says that the infor
nation was given by captured soldier
who was afterward killed.
Following the arrival of Gibbons
messengers at Deer Lodge a relief
party with provisions and surgeons was
at once dispatched to the Big Hole
valley. This party did much to allevi-
ate the suffering of the wounded and
was gratefully received by the heroes
of the battle.

from me. said after he had finished his
story: Who fired the shot that start

Joseph was about two days ahead of
them and ignorant of their approach.
Joseph had been joined by renegade
chief named Poker Joe and his band,
and the Indian force now numbered
about 400 warriors, with perhaps 200
women and children. Some of the vol
unteers, regardless of company organ
izat;on, offered their services, through
Major John b. Catiin, and Gibbon in
differently accepted the offer. Through
out the pursuit and battle he treated
the volunteers with indifference and
disregarded their suggestions. Had he
considered some of the advice that he
received from these old frontiersmen,
the story of the battle of the Big Hole
would read differently to-day.
As the column proceeded up the val

the volunteers decided to withdraw, as
they did not think that there would be
any engagement. Others, possibly,
thought that there might be fight
and for that reason turned back But
there were SO volunteers who remained
with Major Catlin and took part in the
fight. The services that they rendered,
though they have been disregarded in
the military reports of the battle and
in some of the accounts that have since
been written of the engagement, We're

are entitled to much credit for their
part in the fight. Major Catlin and mis-

Fort Shaw, and Joe Blodgett, the vet

upper valley, comprised the civilian
force The list of the members of this

proceeded rapidly to Rye creek, where
camp was made. 1t was thought at
this time that the Indians would be

reached. 1t was believed that the OK |
