When the civil war came and Brown
was organizing a little band of free
lances, Gellert was one of the first to

civil war Gellert was given a commits
sion as commissary sergeant, and in
this capacity Travelled through nearly
every state of the union. He lived
| much on the plains and the duties of
his Office carried him into many dang
erous quarters. He was frequently in
volved in fights with Indians and des-
| peradoes while travelling by stage
coach through the distant west. Gel
lert was close friend of General Gus
ter and was with his party a few days
| before the massacre Of the Little Big

Gellert once made a trip from ST
! Paul to st. Louis in a sleigh on the
ice of the Mississippi river.
