By dark they were within five miles of the murderous town. They went into camp, but made no fires, and the next morning, bright and early they com menced their march on the Indians Fortunately for them the town was adyantageously situated for attack. The dry bed of the river ran within 100 yards of 1t and it's steep banks afforded excellent cover for the at tacking party When the men had been adyantageously placed two men were ordered to show themselves on the bank. They were almost instant ly seen by the Indians, who supposing them to be two of the unfortunate Frenchmen whom they had failed to kill the night before. raised a yell and to the number of about two hundred started in pursuit They were al lowed to approach within 20 yards of the secreted men, when the order to fire was given. The astonished h. dians turned and ran for the hills, as did the entire occupants of the village, but they left 110 dead behind them. On entering the town to burn it the trappers found the bodies of the un- fortunate Frenchmen scattered in pieces all over the place. These were carefully gathered up and decently buried. and the town and its contents entirely destroyed. This town stood on the south bank of the Gila about one mile above the junction of the Sah river.
 The Salt river was then known as the Black and Gila was till 1790. known as .'Nombre del Jesus Cristo." when by order of the Spanish govern ment 1t was changed to its present name.
