dale's camp, the Indians in full
chase charged on them, and
rushed pell-mell into the midst of
camp, almost before they had
time to discover that they had
surprised so large a party of
whites. So sudden was their ad
vent, that they had almost taken
the rump before the whites could
recover from the confusion of
the charge.
It was but a momentary shook,
however. In another instant the
roar of twenty guns reverberat
ed from the mountains that rose
high on either side of camp.
Tho Itlackfeet were taken in a
snare; but they rallied and fell
back beyond the grove in which
the camp was situated, setting
on tire the dry grass as they
went. The tire quickly spread
to the grove, and shot up the
pine trees in splendid columns of
Hume, that seemed to lick the
face of heaven. The Indians
kept close behind the lire, shoot
ing into camp whenever they
could approach near enough, the
trappers replying by frequent
volleys. The yells of the sav
ages, tho noise of the flames roar
ing in the trees, tho bellowing of
the guns, whose echoes rolled
among the hills, and the excite
ment of a battle for life, made
the scene one long to be remem
bered with distinctness.
Roth sides fought with desper
ation. Tho Hlackfoot blood was
j up the trapper blood no less.
tiule's men, from having no am
munition, nor guns that were in
order, could do little more than
take charge of the horses, which
they led out into the bottom land
to escape the tire, tight the
flumes, and look after tho camp
goods. The few whose guns
were available, showed the game
spirit, and the light became in
teresting as an exhibition of what
mountain wdiile men could do in
an end to the independent ex
istence of Gale's brigade, which
joined itself ond its fortunes to
Rridger's command for the re
mainder of the year. Had it not
been for the fortunate visit of
the trapjiers to Gale's camp,
without dohbt every man in it
would have perished at the bunds
of of the Blackfeet; a piece of
bad fortune not uuaccordant
with that 'which seamed to pur
sue the enterprises set on foot
by the active but unlucky New
England trader.
Not long after this battle with
the Blackfeet, Meek and a trap
per named Crow, with two Shaw
noes, went over into the Crow
country to trap on Pryor's River,
a branch of the Yellowstone. On
coming to the pass in the moun
tains between the Gallatin Fork
of the Missouri and the great
bend in tho Yellowstone, called
Pryor's Gap, Meek rode forward,
with the mad-cap spirit strong in
him, to have a little fun with
the boys," and advancing a short
distance into the pass, wheeled
suddenly, and came racing buck,
whooping and yelling, to make
his comrades think he had dis
covered Indians. And lo! as if
his yells had invoked them from
the rocks and trees, a war party
suddenly emerged from the pass,
on the heels of the jester, and
what had been sport speedily be
came earnest, as the trappers
turned their horses' and made
of in. the direction of camp.
They had a tine race of it, and
heard other yells and war-whoops
besides their own; but they con
trived to elude their pursuers,
returning safe to camp.
This freak of Meek's was,
after all, a fortunate inspiration,
for had tho four trappers enter
ed the pass and come upon the
war party of Crows, they would
never have escaped nllve.
an experienced
mountain-man, certain signs
which gave him little satisfac
tion. The buffalo were moving
off as if disturbed; a bear ran
suddenly out of its covert among
the willows.
"I told Crow," said Meek,
"that I didn't like to go in there.
He laughed at me, and called me
a coward. 'All the same,' I
said; I had no fancy for the place
just then I didn't like the indi
cations. But he kept jeering
me, and at last I got mad and
started in. Just as I got to my
traps, I discovered that two red
devils war a watching from the
shelter of the thicket to my left,
about two rods off. When they
saw that they war discovered
they raised their guns and tired.
I turned my horse's head at the
same instant, and one ball rmss

"Seeing that they had not hit
me, one of then ran up with a
spear to spear me. My horse
war rearing and pitching from
the pain of his wounds, so that I
could with difficulty govern him;
but I had my gun laid across my
arm, and when I fired I killed
the rascal with the gpoar. Up to
that moment I had supposed that
them two war all I had to deal
with. But as I got my horse
turned round, with my arm rais
ed to fire at the other red devil,
I encountered the main party,
forty-nine of them, who war in
the bed of the stream, and had
been covered by the bank. They
fired a volley at me. Eleven
balls passed through my blanket,
under my arm, which war raised,
I thought it time to run, and run
I did. Crow war about two hun
d red yards off. So quick had all
this hapiened, that he had not
stirred from the spot whar I left
him. When I came ui to him I
called out that I must get on be
hind him, for my horse war sick
and staggering.
" 'Try him again,' said Crow,
who war as anxious to be off as I
war. I did try him again, and
sure enough, he got up a gallop,
and away he went, the Blackfeet
after up. But being mounted,
we had the udvantage, and soon
distanced them. Before we had
run a mile, I had to dismount
and breathe my horse. We war
in a narrow pass whar it war im
possible to hide, so when the In
dians came up with us, as they
did, while I war dismounted wo
took sure aim and killed the two
foremost ones. Before the others
could get close enough to fire we
war off agin. It didn't take
much urging to make my horse
go then, for the yells of them
Blackfeet spurred him on.
"When we had run another
mile I dismounted agin, fefear
that my horse would, give out,
and agin we war " overtaken.
Them Blackfeet are powerful
runners: no better than us
mountain-men, though. This
time wo served them just as we
did before. We picked off two of
the foremost, and then went on,
the rest whooping' after us. We
war overtaken a third time in
tho same manner; and the third ,
time two Blackfeet fell dead in
advance. At this, they took the
hint. Six warriors already gone
for two white scalps and two
horses; they didn't know how
many'.more would go in the same
way. - And I reckon they had
run tibout ull they wanted to,
anyway.
