According to Keith's calculation this

They followed the cattle trail south
toward the Salt Fork, as this course
would afford them a camp at the only

hot, remorseless sun beating down
upon them. refecting up into t,eir
blistered faces from the hot surface of

air, and the bodies of men and horses
were bathed in perspiration. Not
cloud hung in the blue sky; no wing
of bird broke the monotony of dis
tance, no living animal crept across
the blazing surface of the desert. Oc-

Evidently the Indians were so trou-
blesome as to interrupt all traffic with
Santa Fe and the more western forts.
The slowness of their progress was
on account of the General, whose con.
dition became worse in spite of Fair

medicine the doctor could do but little
to relieve the sufferings of the older
man. although he declared that his
illness was not serious one, and
would yield quickly to proper medical
