indians this spring sarini it was to lose Ind indians faris and not the pawnees Paw nees as has been 8 stated ta i ed in the newspapers who have committed bitted the several depredations n upon p on th the e emig emigrants this springe the duncas hd have 6 now in their possession upwards upward of one hundred head of fine american are worth from to dollars apiece which they have taken from time to time from the emigrants en route lor california and oregon this spring I 1 have dow done all that was in ili my power to stop them and informed them what the consequence would be but boito toito to no purpose months on the ath of june gune a very large war party of the calicas arrived at the village with 28 american horses and told me atje they y a fight emigrants and that they had killed olle
