That fiiinii nlulit n purty of gam ble made camp with thu Nevada men. The Kimiblcru Raid that thu Jordan Creek milieu had petered out, and iiIko icported that the Indians were very bud. "The next nlltht we met Captain Ilerry and a detachmont of TO caval rymuii nent out by Governor Olbba to put down tho Hualce uprUliiR," Hcd Meld went of.

"We thought wo woro out of dun- ger, and It was then that tho attack cumu. 1 romeniber Andrews was mending his pants when wo heard a yell and Indians rode in shooting ar rows und stampeding our cattle. We took tii the hillside, keeping out of shooting distance of a fringe of wil lows whero wo were convinced mora Indians woro' In utnhush." It was at this Juncture that Daugh- erty expressed his desire to kill Ited lleld' dog, a collie, declaring that the unimal had fulled to give warn ing of tho presence of thu Indians, and did not deserve tn live, Itedlleld saved the dug's life, und in so doing made possible hu saving of tho lives of ull four member of thu party u few day tutor, Kllently tlie four men and tho dog stole back to their wagon, eacli tak ing a pair of blankets and a little food before beating a hasty retreat. 1 1 ii I lut h whistled past them, but the snipers on the hillside were equipped wltli tlm old fashioned mtiizle loaders uud fust shooting was one thing that tho fugitive did nut have to fear. The four flnully eluded the war party hy hiding In tail rye grass. "We walked all nlgljt without wa- ler," ItedllclJ said, "und the next morning thought that we might Hud Captuln Drake' post on Crooked river and get him to send out n de tachment to punish tho Indians. AVo climbed n hilt and could sec no truce of Crooked river, but we did see a green rldgo In tho distance that looked as If there might bu water near. A half day's march bro light ii to tho place and shortly after wo located Indian springs. Here throe of us drank whllu the fourth kept a lookout from the rldgo above for Indlnns. Then the lookout was re lieved and had hi chance at the spring. r "From this point wo could seo the Three VilRtors. On Androws' advice we struck west, hoping to Jill thu Oregon-California stage road,' and began our tramp across what ap peared on the map of taut day as the (treat Oregon desert. The iff xt morn ing before we started out, Duughcrty climbed a Juniper tree and saw pines lu tlio distance,. Wo reached them by noon. Hy this time, Clark was so exhausted that he was unablo to curry his blukcts uny further." Hy this time all wcro suffering ter ribly from thirst, mid Itedlleld de cided that tho time had come to Biicrillra tho dog to save tho lives of himself and his companions. He bled the animal from a vein in tho loft side of tha neck, securing two cupfuls of blood, one of which ho drank him self, giving tho (it her to Daugherty Two more cupfuls were taken from a vain on tho opposite side, supplying the other members of the purty, and resulting In tho doath of the dog Tho nnimal mndo no resistance what. over when his owner severed the veins, Itedlleld distinctly remem bered. Tho travelers' tongues woro so swollen that they were unable to eat tlio dog's meat, hut Itedlleld carried strips of It In hla pockets and chawed thorn raw nt Intervals during tho next two days. "Wo kept a westerly courso and traveled all night," Hedtlold said. "In tho morning, IourIi, wiry graBs .about camp wus covered with dow. Wo sucked tho moisture from tho grass, cutting our mouths badly, and roally gottlnR very Uttlo wator. At 10 o'clock wo decided to take over tho hill.

Al Interval during tho night I would dream of water, wake up thirsty, take n drink of that delicious water, and doze off again. Tlm. others wcro doing It too, "Tliu next day wo searched for the outlet of the lako, and found It, but It wan not in tliu direction we wished to go. On the day following we left tho luke." It was on the same day that tho travelers left tho lak5 that tboy reached Crane prairie, according to Kodflold. Tho distance, and tbc weakened condition of tho men makes it seem more probable that it was I'aullna prairie, especially a Itedlleld says that his only reason for calling il (.'ratio prairie was becauso; of tliu presence of it' number of largo white cranes. It was after crossing tlio Deschutes on a raft that Andrews uliot a grouse. It was tho first food thut tho travelers had had In live, days. "And by the way," Interjected the old pioneer uh ho told of hi experi ences, "the next time you read of someone going on a hunger strike, don't wustu any sympathy on him, Vou don't suffer from lack of food If you have plenty of water. It was thirst that caused our suffering. "The next day wo shot a shipmunk. It was our entire ration for thai day. Wo scorched off the hair and ate all thu rest of thu animal. Another ship munk came our way on tho day fol lowing, and wu ato him. Uy this lime Andrews was so weak that ho wus unable to carry his Run and blanket farther. Ho left them, rest ing the barrel of his gun against a sapling. Thlrly-flve years later a Canadian und n mun named Taylor found the Run Just where he hud left it, but tho tree hud encased tho bar rel. "Next morning I took the lead. I was the only olio who still carried his gun and blankets. It was on the tenth day slnco leaving tho Indian country that wo sighted a deer, and I Rave Daugherty. the best shot In the parly, my gun. Ho missed, hater lu tha dny ho missed another deer, (Ireen blackberries were our only food thut day. I remember that hornets stung Clark badly, and bo cried llko u baby." Tho parly laid in an abundant sup ply of meat tho next day I when Ited lleld killed a two year old steer at tho mouth of tho south fork of thu Mc- Kcnzle. Just after he had shot tho aulmal, a man named Carter, who updated a ferry on tho McKenzio, culled to lilm. Carter was the first white man tho members of the party hud seen lu 20 days. Itedlleld recalled that ho and his companions wore so famished that they did not wait to cook any of the meat, but ato the steer's liver raw. From tho south fork of tho Mc Kenzio their march to Eugeno was only about GO miles, and In compari son with tlio earlier part ot tho Jour ney it was fairly easy, although thero wero still muiiy dltllcultlcs to be sur mounted. Itedlleld resided In Albany until 1872, oponlng the first grocery store lu Hint city. In 1876 he was sub agent on tho Nez Porco reservation In Idaho durlne tho Nez Porco war, and In 1877 ho returned to Albany, whero ho has lived ever slnco with thp exception ot last winter, spent In his native statu ot Vermont. lledfleld crossed the plains In 1SC2, going from Chicago to San Francisco.
