An Indian Fighter.

OF Colonel Lockwood's fOrty-foUr years
in the service it will be seen that thirty
years of it was spent as a subaltern of
ficer of the TWenty-second infantry He
was with it in its three great campaigns;
as a lieutenant in command of COM
pany in General Miles, Tongue River and
Yellowstone campaigns in 1857, as q
captain in command of battalion at FL
Caney. and as the senior battalion officer
and second in command in the Malolos
campaign in 1899.
In several fights during that trouble
some winter of 1911, Colonel, then Lieu
tenant Lockwood, particularly distln-
guished himself in the attack on the sup
ply train at Tongue River forks early in
1877 and was recommended for a brevet
rank at that time by General Otis, who
was then the lieutenant colonel OF the
Twenty-second and in command or an
expedition which, although 1t only con-
sisted of six companies held Off nearly
900 Cheyenne Indians during running
fight of several days. The supply train
for which Otis command was the es-
cort was working its way from old Fort
Buford in Dakota. the supply base to the
Tongue River environments, where Cen
eral Miles was in winter quarters, ana
the building which is now Fort Keogh.
Lieutenant LOekwOod's company was
in the vital point of the attack which
Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull led in per-
son.
The destruction of this train would have
meant probable starvation for General
Miles and his command and the practical
humiliation of the United States forces
in the northwestern plain country.

- Colonel Iockwood's efficiency report on
official file at the war department for 1917

of his merits:
Colonel Lockwood is one of the most
deserving officers of the army. He has
probably done more efficient and Valu-
able field service while working in differ

His work at FL Caney in Cuba in 1893
and in the Philippines are most creditable
