but they never gave me any bother

1 got my trouble with the Indians,
and then I got all I wanted"

their gifts from the government.
there were Us many as 1900 OF
them-Kiowas, Comanches. and
other tribes. But they didn't bother
us.
ut was in 1854 that the Indians
broke loose. And then they did
clean things up, I tell you. The
Overland Stage was put completely
out of business for a time. 1t was
during that year that I got my
taste of real Indian trouble"
How did It happen7"
1.-The year before, in 1853. I had
gone out with q man by the name
OF Bowie to the California Crossing
on the South Platte to trade with
the Indians. They were peaceful
enough then. We did good business
with them. We even went on as
far as Drum Canyon after wood
and they didn't offer to modest us.

afterwards moved to Salt Lake

we dedicated that monument to

well, 1t was a race against time.
They say that old Major Russell Of
fered to bet $4,000 that he could
put the mail into San Francisco in
10 days. I don't know how true
that is. but the mail was put across
in less than that time"
You say you wer living here
when the first run was nader
Yes. I had been Twin here for
eight years. I was born in Saint
Louis; but in 1889 father moved
us up hero to old Joe Roubidoux's
, 1923-09-02

and whipped the Sioux. The graves
of the soldiers he had lost were still
marked by buffalo skulls. Well, we
got back home from that trip all
right. but next year when I was
coming back from Denver, with an
OK train we struck trouble
"One morning another man on a
horse was going with me to round
up our stock. We had no notion
that tho Indians had turned ugly.
The first news I got of It was q yell
from my partner; then I saw him
turn his horse and make for the
wagon train. leavin' me afoot and
alone. I didn't know what was the
| trouble. but I turned to run after
him. and the first thing I knew I
got an arrow in the back. Down
