papers. I am writing this to-night as I now expect to strike our trail to Fort Arbuckle to-morrow about 10 o clock A.M. at which time we will separate from the train and return to the Mountains. Captains Hubbard and Lt Woodward remain then Capt Alvard is with me and Captain Walsh with his Company as Escort. We have not yet met with any hostile Indians but keep well upon our guard at all times as a white man is very "unsartin" and an Indian more so.

I will not seal this up until to-morrow as I may have time then to say a word or two more. Good night my love good night. Ever Affectionately Yours. B.H.G.
