Editor THE CHRONICLE:

A few words from ont on the frontier,
or the "Wild and Woody West" as some
are inclined to call it.
Away back i'm the early CO.'S, when this
old Union OF ours was being tested 10 its
very bottom, there was little military
post established in Northern Arizona,
and the name given Il was Camp Sandy,
afterward Camp Verde. There had al
ready been posts established at Camp
Yuma, Camp Phoenix, Camp Cameron,
Fort Mcdowell and Fort Whippe, hut
this vast area of country was not wresred
from the hands of the savage Red Man
until Camp Sandy was established.
The camp was brilt very much like
your own little citv, taking ont the conrt
house. On the north side was the Off
GERS quarters. On the east long line
of adobe houses served for the soldiers.
On the south 1as the barracks, hall etc. !,
and on the west only know there was
hospital. In the center there was large
space used for drilling purposes
All was not smooth sailing at Camp
Sandy, for at times the camp would be
AS calm and happy as military post is

tant (for they had an adjutant who was
indeed hero) would see the sand rising,

knew at once that there was something

Mojaves, or one Of the other tribes had

called it.

his charming daughter had just arrived

But the old colonel frightened up al
once. One could zee the fire fash from
his eyes as he received the information
given by the men and spies He ordered
all things and all men to be gotten ready
for long journey and hard fight. The
raid was to be led by Captain Tanner.
They were off the next morning, every
soldier glad to be on his cayuse, with his
canteen, carblne, six shooter and other
necessary supplies for a raid against the
Indians.

Cheer after cheer rent the midnight
air.
"Hurrah. for Pat, he's safel" they
bawled!
But even as they raised their
voices in exultation, Pat, once more
upon his feet, rushed madly toward
the house!
"Stop!" they cried as one VOICE
but Pat would not stop!
