| and was made in two boats, one in
charge of Meldrum, carrying goods for
the fort. and the other with annuities
for the Crows. Due to the swift cur-
rent Of the river the party frequently
found themselves at the end of a day
of arduous labor still in sight of their
| camping place of the night before.
At the mouth of Powder river Col
onel Redfield was taken sick and the
goods we're all loaded in one boat,
which continued in charge of Meldrum
while in the other Culbertson and Red
on the recovery of Redfield the trip to
Fort Alexander was made overland.
A story of Meldrum'S dealings with
the Indians along the Yellowstone, Big
Horn and Rosebud rivers, was told by
Lieutenant Bradley in 1876 by Little
Face, one of Bradley's Grow scouts, then
a nan of about IS years. His narrative
referred first to a trader known among
the Indians as The Crane, who was
stationed for several years on the Rose
bud. He said:
1.-THE Crane did not stay long, but
left another man, Big Nose, in his
place. The Crane went away east,
among the white people, and never
came back. He had two wives among
the Crows. whom he left when he went
away, and several children, only one
of whom he took away with him. He
was a tall slender man with long, sandy
hair. The Crows did not like Big Nose
because he was rude to them in trade,
often throwing their robes back into
their faces when they were not tanned
soft enough to suit him. So they told
him they not want any such men to
trade with them and that he must take
his goods out of the country, and he
did so after the fort had been at the
Rosebud for three SHOWS three years..
Three SHOWS after the Rosebud fort
was abandoned, Round Iron Meldrum)
came to trade with them. The Crows
liked Round Iron. He was the best
white man that ever came to the Grow
country. He could speak Grow like one
of themselves, and no could tell
from his talk that he was not a Crow
He had first come to their country
when he was a boy, and had grown up
among them.
Round Iron had four posts among
the Crows. The first was on the Big
Horn just above the mouth of the Little
Big Horn believed by some to have
been built by Manuel Lisa), where he
stayed three SHOWS; the second was on
the right bank of the Yellowstone,
nearly opposite but q little above the
mouth of the Great Porcupine, where
he stayed two SHOWS; the third on the
same side of the Yellowstone, a few
miles lower down, where he stayed five

For Quick Relief. Say BAYER Aspirin When You Buy

Here is quicker relief from pain-the
fastest safe relief, it is said, ever
known. This is due to a scientific
discovery by which BAYER Aspirin
starts taking hold" of pain a few
minutes after taking.
The illustration of the glass here
tells the story.A Bayer tablet starts to
disintegrate or dissolve-go to work
almost instantly. This means quick
relief from pain-fewer lost hours
from headache, neuritis, rheumatism.
And safe relief. For genuine Bayer
Aspirin does not harm the heart.
When you buy, e that you get
the genuine Bayer Aspirin. The best
way is never to ask for aspirin by the
name aspirin" alone. But if you
want Bayer Aspirin's quick relief
always to say "BAYER Aspirin"

lodge, and, living in all respects the
life of an Indian, he was quickly en-
abIed by his superior intelligence and
courage to acquire great influence with
his savage associates and 500 became

He was a mar of many adventures
and although he possessed a mild dis
position and Stunned quarrels, no one
ever ventured to call his courage ir
question.
Meldrum subsequently entered the
service of the American Fur compan!
with which he continued until the time
of his death at Fort Union in 1865. Up.
