a common occurrence in those days.
1t was on the night of July 5 when
the steamboat Far West came down
the river to Bismarck. The Far West
brought the wounded of Reno's COM

the Custer command.
On the morning of July Mr.. Carna

and for 90 hours he sat at his key. 1t
was four o'clock the next morning
when he checked off the signature of
the last dispatch in that old carpet
