page number 54 Aug - getting into position, a couple of men ran down from the camp and fired at them one of the balls striking one of them. Of course they returned to the other side of the river and as they were going up the opposite bank they recd. several more shots, one breaking the hind leg of one of them. Another shot from my gun hit one in the back dropping him for good. Just then indians were reported approaching from the direction in which they had come yesterday. Ceased firing and in a short time, they came up & seeing the wounded bull, with three legs starting away, gave chase. It was a fine scene
