page number 57 Aug - now he was like a crazy man had no place to go to trade. He said he had not yet picked out his reservation, but would do so and have it ready next year. I believe by the terms of the treaty the Crows are to receive $25000 a year for 20 years. In the evening a train came up from the States. They say they have not seen one indian this side of Laramie. They represent that the Q.M at Phil Kearney is trying to let a hay contract at $45 per ton. They think it doubtful whether we receive a train with Q.M Stores for some time, as they seem to be nearly frightened to death at the Fort.
