Mail.
Mail.Wo made our way through Missouri
to the city of St. Joseph , May 1 ; wo
crofcbcd the Missouri river at Duncan's
ferry , four miles above St. Joseph. Our
first night on the plains was amid a tor-
rifle thunderstorm. Torrents of rain
fell upon us. This was our initia
tion to the long journey of perils and
hardships before us. Our route lay
over a rolling prairie country for eighty
mllcH. Passing Fort Kearney up the
valley of the 1'lattc to Fort Laramie ,
thence across the IMack Hills and up the
South 1'latto , wo toiled on slowly and
without any particular incident.
Wo crossed the Rockies at "South
Pass , " and shortly came to Pacillo spring !
the first water flowing wcstwa-d. Wo
were now in a land of alkali beds , gravel ,
bottle rock , hand dunes , sage brush ,
miakcH , horned toads , lizards , tarantulas ,
and everything that goes to make a first-
class desert land.
I should have- wild that after crossing
the Missouri river our company had
been joined by other companies , and had
become quite strong in numbers.
At Uig Sandy creek , where wo camped
nt noon , two Kentuckians , who joined
us , and who were partners in the team
ihoy drove , had a quarrel over their
private affairs. Their names were Col
onel TJosloy and Major Deal. The war
of words between the two being ever , we
proceeded. Two days brought us to
what was called "Lost River. " At this
place wo took a vote of the company , and
determined to camp until noon of the
next day. The country was full of
hostile Indians , and there was borne op
position to on'1 delaying so long. Hero
Bosloy , Heal an d the wi Her went fishing.
Wo caught a line trout , and that even
ing the Kentuekians invited me to eat
Biippor with them. Wo divided the
trout between us and enjoyed it. The
best of feeling Rcomed to exist all around ,
and I then little dreamed of the terrible
tragedy to which the thrco of us should
bo parties in a few brief hours.
Early the next morning I was awak
ened by loud and angry talk. I got up
and found a heated dispute going on
about breaking camp at once. I tald , ' 'I
thought this thing was bottled yesterday
that wo were to stay here until noon. "
The talk quieted down. But Boslcy was
determined to go on. Ho wont out and
got Ilia two mules , and with the assist
ance of another man began to harness
the animals. Beal 'naked , "What are
you going to do ? "
" 1 am going on , " was his partner's
reply.
" 1 am not , " was Bcal's quiet answer.
Bosloy having hitched his mules to the
wagon , drove out of camp , taking the
two young men with him , Dave Dye and
Steve Deems. Bcsley and Beal wore
under contract to take these men to Cal
ifornia.Bosloy in tills manner loft Beal
with a pair of mules and harness. Beal
applied to mo and my partner , Mr. Gray ,
for conveyance to California. Wo took
him on condition that he do an equal
sharo'of camp duty , and Unit wo have
the Ube of Ills mules ,
Theio was. a feeling of uneasiness in
the camp after Bosley had gone , and
after talking the matter over wo decided
to move on. This was about 10 o'clock
a. in. About noon wo ovo"took Bosloy ,
who had stopped to feed his mules. Wo
passed him , and teen came to a very
Btcei ) hill. My team was in the lead.
Beal was driving it , and I was riding a
small mule. When wo gained the top of
the hill I told Beal to wait for the other
teams to como up. I dismounted from
my mule and Beal got down from the
wagon. Just at this time Bosley ap
peared at the top of the hill , riding a
mare and carrying a double-barreled
shotgun on the horn of his saddle. Ho
rodoup- quickly , his eyes flashing intense -
tense anger , and demanded :
"Major , are you going to leave mo in
this kind of a way ? "
Beal replied firmly : "Yes , sir , I am. "
Bosloy instantly raised his gun , mut
tering something I could not understand ,
and fired. Beal received the charge in
his left breast. I sprang forward lobavo
the man's life , but not in time. I grasped
the mu/.7.1o of BosloyV gun and hold it
down , but the fatal messenger had sped.
I commanded Bosley to surrender. Still
holding the gun by the barrels , I tried
to wrest it from him , and in the ollort
pulled him out of the saddle. Then on-
Bued a terrible struggle between us for
the gun. Bosloy retained hib hold upon
it. Ho was a largo , muscular fellow , and
ho was in a frenzy. He cocked the lock
on the loaded barrel and pushed mo
backward , all the time endeavoring to
bring the gun in range with my body ,
while I was struggling as desperately to
how the muzzle on the ground. In this
way ho ran mo buck to some brambles.
My feet boeumo entangled and 1 fell on
my hands and knees , Bosloy eoveriii"
my head and shoulders with his breast
nnd throwing his arms around me. I
btill held to the gun. I called for help.
I Hhouted murder ! No one came to my
relief. The rest of the company was not
in sight. My legs
were crossed. I was
powerless. 1 kept on struggling , and at
last got my feet squarely under mo.
With a I my strength I suddenly raised
erect , lifting Bosloy olT his feet , throw
ing him over my head and wrenchinj :
the gun from his hands.
As to in as I was clear from Bosloy I
ran to Beal , raised him up and reposed
him agaliibt a clump of bago brush. Ho

beyond His heart was
riddled with buckshot. He died without
baying word. Out-
u Outentire train was
sotn on the fceno , and shortly there ar
rived another ox train of fifty men. Wo
burled Beai and piled up a inurnment of
i-rckHuvor his giave. Biulev was put
undtr iruurd and wo all traveled on , the
object being to join another largo iininl-
giutlon train , and with thin increased
number of men to hold a council and
determine what should be done with
Ucsloy.
On Juno 1,1 , l < r > 2 , wo found a inulo
tralir from Pennsylvania , bound for Oro-
ijcu , and boino puckers. Wo met at
llama Fork of the Green river. Wo
now hud at least 100 men in the crowd.
Jt did not take longer the leaders of
the companion to decide upon n plnn of
action. BotU-y should bo tried thi-nand
there for murdor.
A hollow square was formed of ox
yokes. In the eontor of this nqunro
liosloy wan mudo to take a seat upon an
ox yo'ko. A iniin by the name of Hush
consented to act as Mosley's lawyer and
conduct his defense , Ho also vat within
the circle , by Hwley's wldo , upon an ox
yoko. A jury of six unbiased men was
chosen to hear the evidence. The cap
tain of the Oregon company conducted
the trial. The following witnesses wore
called : John Peters , Spencer Knapp ,
Charles Kills , Dave Dye and Jay Green.
The prisoner asked that the witnesses
might bo sworn. The Oiegon captain
administered the oath in behalf of the
California and Oregon immigrants as
plaintiffs and Leonldas Bosloy defend
ant. I was the last witness. I testified
positively to the killing , but was careful
to give the prisoner the benefit of every
word or act that might be in his favor.
When the testimony was all In Bosloy
arose and said , "Green , you have done
mo justice , but John Peters has not. "
The jury retired from the rest of the
crowd and soon agreed that the prisoner
was guilty , but could not fix the punish
ment. The Oregon captain then made
this statement to the crowd. Ho then
drew a long line on the ground , and
said : "All of you who are in favor of
Inflicting the death penalty immediately
will cross this lino. "
The crowd rushed like a flock of sheep
ever the "dead line , " not half a dozen
refraining from this call for vengeance.
The jury again retired , and then cumu
li ! with the verdict that Bosley should
bo shot at 0 o'clock the next morning ,
Juno 11 , isr > 2.
A special tent was pitched , and Bosley
was hold through the night under guard.
I visited him that evening. Ho seemed
to euro little for the sentence. I touched
his feelingd bv asking him if his mother
was living , ilo dropped his head a mo
ment , then said :
"Oh , Green , say nothing of my fam
ily. "
Ho then made a request of mo that I
take charge of some letters ho would
write , and deposit them in the postoflleo
at Sacramento.
I promised to do so. Ho then asked
mo to remain with him through the
night. I told him I could not. I was
greatly weighed down by the strain of
the whole tttVulr and with fatigue , and I
told him I would have to have some rest.
The next morning I visited him early.
I found him dressed in a line broadcloth
suit , white shirt and black cravat. Ho
xx as a fine looking man in features and
physical build. 1 looked upon him and
thought : "Dresced for eternity in this
wild and ragged desert land. " Ho gave
me three letters and told me that each
contained a leek of hair , ono to his
mother , ono to his x ifo and ono to his
brother. Thcso wore messengers to boar
the sad news that would break the hearts
of loved ones in Kentucky.
The hour of execution came. Should
I live 10,000 years I oiuld not forget the
scene that then transpired All the
teams were ordered to drive on with the
women and children , ono mail only was
stationed with each wagon ; all the other
men wore retained. The Oregon cap
tain ordered all present to form in a
half eiiclo. A few refused to do &o ,
whereupon they were commanded by the
captain to too the mark or leave the
ground. All then formed in line except
myself , I waded a slough near by and
stood on a high point. 1 was determined
to watch the proceedings , but would not
consent to participate in them.
Twelve men were drawn by ballot to
act as executioners. Ono of the party
'
volunteered to'load the twelve rifles.
Ilo wus instructed to retire from ob
servation and load six rifles with powder
and ball and six with powder only.
After leading the guns the man loft
them were they wore and departed.
The prisoner was held under guard
about fifty yards distant down the road.
Two men wore sent to bring the guns ,
which wore placed in the hands of the
twelve men , who were then marched
into line to the place where the prisoner
awaited death. The rest of the party
took up places in file on each side of the
road.
The captain said to Bosley , "What is
your distance ? " The doomed man re
plied , "Twelve stops. " The captain
then baid , "Step off your ground. "
"I cannot do it ; you do it for mo. "
The captain answered , "I will do it
with you. "
These two , judge and convict , then ,
side by side , paced oil twelve stops from
the line of men who held their rifles in
parade manner.
The Oregon captain then took a
blanket from Busloy's shoulders and
spread it on the ground. Bosloy knelt
down upon it with his back to the rifle
men. Up to this time ho bore himself
with horuio fortitude. Ho iibkod that
ho bo allowed to give the bignul to lire ,
by raising his right hund , and his re
quest was granted. Ho turned his head ,
looked behind him , and asked , "Gentle
men , are you ready ? " I saw a marked
change coming over his face. I cannot
describe his look , but it was so strange
and impressive that I can never forgot
it. Ho dropped his head and asked a
question that started the tears in every
eye : ' 'Is there any ono present who will
pray for mo ? "
In the file of men with rifles , waiting
the order to lire , was a Gorman who , the
previous evening , had visited Bosloy at
his tent and sought to talk with the
prisoner concerning his spiritual wel
fare and his pence with God. Bosley
hud at that time
waived all such con
solation. But now at the open grave ho
bowed his head and penitently called :
"Is there any ono present who will pray
for mo ? " It was this Gorman who at
once laid his gun upon the ground and
stepped forward. I never heard a
prayer more fervent and eloquent. It
was an intensely solemn occasion and
among all the hardy , roughmannorcd
men present there was not ono who was
not deeply nllected. I claim that no
man but a Christian could have per
formed this double duty of mediator and
executioner. IJi prayer concluded , ho
stopped back into tlio line and took up
his rifle. Then the captain pronounced
thejo words in a clear tone :
"Make ready ! " and twelve rifle bar
rels wore leveled at the kneeling bucrl-
llco to border justice.
"Take aim , " und tlio gunners steadied
themselves for the fatal signal , and Bos-
ley's right hand went up.
"Fire ! " and instantly flashed the vol-
len , reverberating a wild and unearthly
death knell among the crags that looked
down upon that awful scono.
In the clear morning air the smoke of
the guns curled lazily , and hung like a
funeral pall ever the mangled and bleed
ing form.
Four bullets had pierced his body. Ho
fell on his face and lay motionless for a
few seconds. Then ho began to ralto his
head. 1 came near and stood in front of
him.
him.Ho
Ho continued to rftKo his head and
body without a struggle. Ho looked mo
In tno eye ) and his mouth wiu In motion
as though ho was trying to speak , I
watched him cloeoly. In an Instant a
dimness came ever his eyes , and ho fell
and was dead *
I believe ho know mo and tried to toll
mo something.
Wo dug a grave , rolled him in his
blankets and buried him whore ho died.

Offering * were fairly liberal and the quality
bitter than recently. Speculative shippers
were Inclined lo take hold more freely , the de
mand was good from local houses and whllo
pi ices were not quotahly higher they weio In
the main fully nte-idy wltli I'rlday and busi
ness was .brisk throughout. Uood to choice
1.3IKI to l,5r > 0-lb. teers Mild at from
$1.75 to J5.10 , with fair to good 1,050
to l.'JOO-lb. steers at from H.10 to
$4.60. I'alr to poor stulT was moro
or less neglected but qutitahly tinchiinged at
from $3.75 to $4. The supply was well cleared
up , lea\lng little to lemaln In the pens oxer
Sunday or go on through Jo Lhlcngo In first
hands ,
Nearly ono half of the entire frc h receipts
were made up of cows and mixed stock , ( food
to choice stutf found a ready sale at stronger
prices from (3.25 up to4.25. I'alrtogood
grades were \eiy nearly steady at from $2.50
to J3. Theio being a superabundance of com
mon and canning cows heie these grades sold
lower , 5c lo lOc lowei than 1'rlday , at from
$1.50 to $2.25 , Hulls , oven and stags while
( [ notably steady , are selling lOc to 15u lower
than the eatly part of the week at fiom $2 to
$3.75. Only u limited number of calves were
ottered and pi Ices ruled about steady with
sales at from 2 to J5.70.
The feeder tiado has been IndllTeient all
week , ( jood fleshy stock and of good finality
has been and Is yet In falrdomand , but there
has been > ery little call for the medium and
Inferior grades. The maiket has picked up
somewhat lat ly , howeM'r , und although the
trade was quiet today , prices ruled firm ,
lions The market has experienced the
worst lueak It has had In oxer thiee months.
This piiiinot be atttlhutcd to heaxy leivlpts
because receipts haxo been light oM-rywhcio
nnd the i un here the lightest In ou-r a > car ,
0,000 lighter than a week ago and 12.00C
lighter than a year ago. 1'ilces haxcgonoolT

be accounlid for by speculation In the
product. When proxlshms broke and there
was no money to ho made In manufacturing
the packets s-lmply dropped out and pilces
xxent down. Whether this weak Is permanent
or only tempoiaiv lem.ilns to be seen. A
good deal depends on tlio mattei of supplies ,
out In this pin ticuliir dealers aieas much
at sea as exer. Naturally the feeling
Is a trifle beailsh at pre-ent , hut
this s certainly not on account of any
Immediately piosnectlvo Increase In lecelpts
The Cincinnati I'rlce Ciinent says : "There
Is but one week more of the winter season ,
ami It is now plain that the total foi the four
months will not reach 500(100' ( ' ) by acnnsld-
eiable maigln. There Is such a condition of
uncertainty cmu-emlng the fntuie of supplies
that opinions do not shape Into definite foi m ,
other than a piexalent belief that liberal mar
keting can not be expected before next au
tumn or winter , although theie are Intima
tions of aielatlvely fair number expected to
be available In Maj and 'un ' . "
The trade today was but a repetition of that
of I'rlday. Tiesh lecelpts weie compara-
tlxely light , but 39c.us , and the quality xvas
good , although the weights weie light. Kust-
ein markets wore lower and theio was no
shipping or speculative demand to sustain
values , so that when bityets started In bidding
I'llday's xery xxe.ik closing prices , sellers gen-
eiallx accepted the Inexliable , and the trade
was fairly actlxe fiom stait to finish. All
local houses xxero In It. both fresh meat men
and packets , the foimcr , as usual ,

the best tn Ices. Uood to choice butcher
