to 60 with General Custer and that he
wanted me to have the best mount
there was at the post. At that time
the horses at the fort were pretty well
run down from many chases after In
dians, but 1 was riding and had at
the time as good long distance horse
as have ever known, and he was 4
mule. The general himself was riding
a Kentucky thoroughbred.
At daylight 1 rode up to the COM
manding officers quarters, and Cap
tain Ovenshine introduced me for the
first time to General Custer. The gen.
eral, seeing that was mounted on q
mule, said to Captain Ovenshine:
"Captain, I haven't got time to dilly
daily along the road with a mule. l
see that my guide here is mounted on
a mule. I want him to have horse,
and a good one"
I said, General this 10 the best
horse at the fort, and I assure you
that he won't be much behind you
when you reach Fort Larned."
The captain explained to the general
condition at the fort and that he had
heard me brag so much about that
mule hat he felt quite sure that the
beast vas all right.
The general seemed little displeas-
ed and said, "Well, If that is the best
you have I will have to put up with
it."
We mounted and started out on the
road. For the first fifteen miles to
Smoky Hill river there was a good
wagon road, and as we rode along the
general asked me numerous questions
in regard to the country and the In.
dians and thus we talked along mile
after mile. But the general was going
at pretty rapid gait, and my mule
was not very speedy on the start, but
I knew he would finish all right. So
when the general was not looking
would put the spurs to the mule lit
tie to wake him up. However, I kept
alongside Of the general until I got to
Smoky Hill river. I noticed that the
old mule was not painting much, but
the horses were.
told the general that this would be

til we got near Larned; that it would
be best to water the horses there, and
If the men required any water they
had better fill up their canteens, which
they did.
From this point we struck into the
sand hills, leaving all roads. 1t was
pretty sandy and pretty heavy travel
ing for horse or mule, but made up
my mind that I would show the gen.
eral from there on that had spoken
the truth about the mule. So when the
general was not looking at me would
put the spurs to him, and as he would
lunge ahead would say:
'Whoa, there! Take it easy, old fel-
low. Don't get to frettin'."
We went on like that for mile or
80. The mule would get ahead of the
horses, and whenever the general
wasn't looking would spur him, and
as the mule would forge ahead I
would pat him to calm him down.

in scoring many more.
Despite the fact that they were badly
beaten. the Eastern aggregation put Up
a fast game and had they devoted
more time TO handling the ball than TO

made a larger score Another factor that
prevented the Southeast boys from get
ting more points was the difficult locs-
