Those Indians who had no guns rushed on the soldiers with tomahawk in one band and scalping knife in the other. It was a frightful rush. With General Forsythe and Major Whiteside, I stood, when the firing start ed, with'n touchipg distance of the treacherous devils. The only thing tbat saved us from death was that the Indians had their backs turned to us when they began firing, Their first volley waa almost as one man so that thev must have hred a hundred shots before the soldiers fired one. But how they were slaughtered after their first volley 1 Some, however, succeeded in getting through the lines and away to the hills to the southwest. . The firing lasted half an hour and even as I write these words I hear that Ilotchkiss is pouring shots iuto the gullys to the north, where a few of the reds have taken refuge.
