Indian sign. The road does not look as if it had been used since the troops were here last year. All thro the Corundes large fires were raging & thro the country round. Dr. Price arrived yesterday. Maxon is sending into Stockton for the mens blankets &c they want them badly as the nights are cold. He proposes soon to make a scout towards the head of Blue River and the East side of Mts. as the horses are very poor & want grass. He wishes to be very kindly remembered to you.

    I hope you had a nice trip down to Concho, how is the staff, I suppose you have sent the Medical part of it out to rusticate.  Please remember me to the other portion.
    How did you first find Mrs. Grierson & Harry & George?  they must have been read glad to get you back again.
