The Kevin review. [volume] (Kevin, Mont.) 1922-1929, 1923-03-01
BY DAVID B. WEAVER

An overland route from the states
to the northwest had been laid out
to Virginia City in the fall OF 1858
by Captain John Bozeman (and hence
known as the "BOzeman TraiI')
which by reason of the enthusiastic
recommendations given it by its
founder was adopted by a number
Of wagon trains as their line of ira
vel, particularly during the ext cou-
pie of summers before the govern
ment discontinued its use. The Boze-
man trail differed from the new
Bridger trail in three important
and, 1t may be added, disadvantage
eus-respects: it was over a hundred
miles longer than the Bridger trail;
it lay east of the Big Horn moun
tains; and it passed through country
inhabited by hostile Sioux instead of
the territory of ~the more friendly
Crows west of the Big Horns. This
last feature made it necessary for
a considerable number of wagons to
collect in a train before v~enturing
into the Sioux regions. The easterly
end of the trail which was Richards
(Re-shaw's) toll bridge o. the
North Platte Cat a point between the
present stations of Casper and Glen
rock on the Chicago and Northwest
ern railroad) accordingly became a
sort of assembling point for the
overland travellers.
I arrived at Richards bridge on
July 6, 1864, and learned that just
a few days before my arrival a wa
gon train had departed over the Boze-
man trail under the command of a
Captain Townsend. AS our own Wa
gon train at that date consisted of
only seventeen wagon (Which had
travelled together since leaving Fort
Laramie) it was ~inadvisable to pro-
coed further in the direction of the
Indian country without a large party.
Hence we remained at Richards
bridge until July II, by which time
sixty-eight wagons had collected;
and the train was then regularly or
ganized with Captain Cyrus c.. Cot
mnbury in charge, and moved out to
follow Capt. Townsend's train over
the Bohemian trail / have given in
a former article a brief sketch of the
progress of Captain C~offinbury's
train until it's disbandment (see CON
tributions to Montana Historical So
ciety, vol. Z, p. 75-77) and will now
refer to Il movements only as lead
ing UP to the subject Of this article,
viz. the battle between Captain
Townsend's wagon train and the In
dams at the Powder river.
On July %, 1864, our own (Cof-I
finbury's) train reached the Powder
river at the junction of what is now
known as Sand creek, but was known
to us then as Dry creek We crossed
" the river, followed up the north
sank for about six miles, or to the
junction of the South fork of the
Powder river with the westerly fork,
the latter consisting of the union,
a few miles still further westward,
of the North fork and the Middle
fork; and "a train went into corral
here just a little above the junction
of the South fork.
Some reference should be made to
the situation of the Bozeman trail
in this neighborhood, and certain
physical aspects of the locality.

number Of holes in a given area.
The mining industry and the &C.
