I have two Penatghka? scouts out also but they will hardly get in before Monday. Pepon's? two men from Gibrou? have not come yet_why we cannot understand as they are known to have reached Gibrou? on the 25th of Jany and are understood to have started on their return the 27th now ten days ago. The 19th Kansas with the exception of its' officers has been dismounted the 7th Cavalry completed remounted and the surplus horses_over 200 I am told start for Arbuckle tomorrow the Or.Mr.? and go men of the 19th being in charge. Capt.? Penney having arrived ? Hazen? thinks he can get away and wants to start about the 10th or 12th on a trip towards the mouth of the Little Arkansas with a view to opening a road to that point. He wants General Grienson? to go with him very much. Supplies seem to be arriving now in good quantity the only scarcity being sugar and bacon of the former the troops have has none for four days and the latter will be out on the 9th. Altho of the officers supplies which Lebo? brought down all was given to the 19th not an ounce to the 10th now that this large long has come really belonging to all to the 10th it is all turned? of to Capt. Smith. R.C. 7th and the 10th are to be allowed only their prorata? share.
