CHAPTER I.
At Old Fort Armstrong.


1t was the early springtime, and my
history tells me the year was 1882,
although now that seems so far away
almost hesitate to write the date. 1t
appears surprising that through the
haze Of all those intervening years
intensely active years with mel
should now be able to recall so clearly
the scene of that far-off morning of
my youth, and depict in memory each
minor detail. Yet, as you read on, and
realize yourself the stirring events re-
sulting from that idle moment, you
may be able to comprehend the deep
impression feft upon my mind, which
no cycle of time could ever erase.
was barely twenty then, q strong,
almost headstrong boy, and the far
wilderness was still very new to me,
although for two years past had held
! army commission and been assigned to
duty in frontier forts. Yet never pre-
yiously had 1 been stationed at quite
so isolated an outpost of civilization
as was this combination of rock and
log defense erected at the southern
extremity of Rock Island, fairly ma
rooned amid the sweep of the great
river, with Indian-haunted land
stretching for leagues on every side.
A mere handful of troops was quar-
tered there, technically two companies
of infantry, yet numbering barely
enough for one; and this in spite of
rumors daily drifting to us thH+ the
Sacs and Foxes, with their main viii
lage just below, were already becom-
ing restless and warlike, inf1amed by
the slow approach of white settlers
into the valley of the Rock. Indeed,
so short was the garrison of officers,
that the harassed commander had ven
tured to retain me for field service, in
spite of the fact that was detailed to
staff duty, had borne dispatches up the
Mississippi from General Gaines and
expected to return again by the first
boat.
The morning was one of deep-bfue
sky and bright sunshine. AS soon as
early drill ended / had left the fort

on the great rock above the mouth of
the cave. Below, extended magnifi-

sweep toward the sea except for few
