Anderson's men charged
johnson forces at full speed
and killed all of them except
those left with the horses, who,
seeing the slaughter, mounted
and fed. Anderson men rode
on the sides of their horses, and
lost only one man. Mr.. Cauthorn
received orders late that evening
to help bury the dead, and assist
ed in burying SO of the 175 men,
who were put in a trench by the
side of the railroad, the head OF
one man being placed between
the legs of another and their faces
merely covered with a blanket OF
coat. The dead were afterwards
removed to their homes or to GEM
etries.
Another earlier experience o.
Mr.. Cauthorn which he related
with amusement, was that when
school boy he secured a steel pei
in some manner, but his teacher
John P. Clark, advised him no
to use it because he might no
always be able to get one, Will
he could always be sure of gel

where the family passed through
all the horrors of border warfare,
until in 1865, despairing of the
war ever ending, they removed to
Oregon and located in Corvallis.
Mr.. Cauthorn was the eldest

and the surrounding country
when Henderson, who arrived
first by train, and Rollins, VIII

Rollins friends met him on tn
outskirts of the town. All VIII
could secure horses were there
and when they reached 9TH

assembled, the excitement was Il
tense. Mexico is the county sea
of Audrain county, and like man

business houses across the FOL
streets on which the court houi

Mr.. Cauthorn often heard &c
