cipated in the fight of the previous
night and confessed that his father.
instead of being in Washington was
at the head Of the outlaw bands scat
tered among the hills of the former

acy just as it stood. and prepared with
the aid of the military to crush the In
dams in the fight which It was believed

cause the troops were forced to whit
two hours at Sapulpa for train. Mean
while the various indian bands scattered
into squads took up positions of van
tagc here and there and stationed them
solves as in guerilla warefare.
The citizens organized themselves Int
companies. Messengers were hurried t.
Muskogee for abundant arms and
ammunition. Women and children were
placed In safe retreats and complete
military order prevailed.
