Fort Wa.eopaiw (The Dalles),
March 2S,
tar Father:
I suppose you have the news up to
the time that General Fainter left us
at Weilatpu. 1 will endeavor to give
you some information with regard to
our movement! after he left us up te
this time and our present situation.
The morning that the CommUsion
era left us Col. Gilliam left the Fort
in dearth of the Indains with ahout
two hundred men. Learning from the
friendly Indians that they were en
camped ahout thirty miles north of
east of Weilatpu we steered our
course in that direction and on the
second day we encamped near that
place and found that the Indians had
all deserted and pone? some friendly
Indians came into camp and informed
us that the Indiana had gone to the
mouth of Canon River for the purpose
of crossing the Snake River and get
ting out of our reach. The next morn
ing the colonel called the regiment
together and left it to the regiment
to say whether he should follow the
Indians or return to the Fort. The
unanimous cry was follow the In
dians and get these murderers if pos
sible. He then ordered the cannon
and a sufficient force to protect it,
back to the Fort. We then proceed
ed with about one hundred and fifty
men in search of the Indians. We
traveled until about 2 o'clock p. m.
and encamped. Several Indians came
to us through the day; they all in
formed us that the murderers had
gone to the mouth of the Toocanon.
Ahout sundown the orders were to
aaddle up and prepare for marching.
About dark we took up the line of
march for the mouth of the aaid
river. We struck the river about
twelve miles above its mouth and
steered our course cautionsly down
the same. After we had traveled
about ten miles down said river one
of our spies returned and informed
us that the Indians were encamped
but a short distance below us. The
order was to prepare for battle. While
we were preparing to surround them
one of the spies that remained fool
like fired at what he thought to be
an Indian. That throwed everything
. ,m confusion. we succeeded though
before a great while in surrounding
wnat we thought to be a village and
it proved to be a bunch of willows.
The spy had shot at a horse. The
colonel, after we had given up the
searrn at that place ordered the men
to camp and remain until morning.
We arose early in the morning and
discovered that the hilla were liter
ally covered with stock. We were in
a short time jn battle array march
ing towards their village. We had
not proceeded more than a quarter
of a mile before we discovered their
village situated about a half a mile
below u. Everything was excite
ment We found that we had com
pletely surprised them; the Indians
discovered us at about the same time
that we discovered them. They were
almost frightened out of their senses.
We could see them running in every
direction from their village making
their escape. Some of the Indians
came to us pretending to be friendly
ana aesired us to talk with them, but
this was only for the purpose of get
ting time for their families that they
might leave and get out of our way.
When we reached the village we could
find no murderers, they had all gone.
Knowing that there was a village on
Snake River about a mile from this
village we proceeded to that place.
When we reached there we found the
Indians busily engaged in crossing
the river. The men were very much
exasperated. All was excitement The
men were not allowed to fire on the
Indians but they were so mad that
one of them fired contrary to orders
and killed an Indian. Finding no
murderers the colonel ordered us to
retrace our steps but drive in all the
stock that we could conveniently get
We started back to the fort with
about two hundred head of cattle and
ahaut the same number of hor-.es.
We had not traveled more than five
miles before tne Indians attacked us
on almost all sides. We kept them
off by having the men so situated as
to fight them as we traveled. The
Indians continued to annoy us. At
sundown we thought bet to encamp
for the night knowing that we could
net well f.ght Indians and drive stock
after night After we had encamped
the Indians drew off and ceased fir
ing but it was not a great whlie be
fore they returned to the attack. The
colonel called a council in order to
know the feeling of the officers. The
council decided on calling off the
guard and letting the stock eo. nr..
fernng to give up the stock rather
man see their men killed in protect
ing them ly these savages, and also
knowing that their men had not more
than forty rounds of ammunition
with them and about fifty miles from
the fort surrounded by Indians, They
continued to annoy us all night but
the next morning we continued our
journey f.gl ting as we traveled until
we reached the Tusin (?, a small
creek, here we found that we could
not retreat any farther without los
ing some of our men; the Indians had
got into the brush and rocks and it
was necessary for the safety of the
regiment to dislodte them. We suc
ceeded in driving them from their po
silion by killing and wounding a num
ber of them. Here the engagement
ceased after fighting about thirty
hours. We killed and wounded a good
many of them. Some were scalped by
the boys. W lost none on our side
but had nine or ten wounded, tome of
them badly. We reached the fort next
day worn out with fatigue and hun
ger. We had not eaten for three days
except a little horse fltsh on hte eve
ning of tin third day. If we had of
managed it properly we could of tak
en and whipped the Indians without
any difficulty, but it is too late to
talk and write about that affair now.
After resting ourselves and animals
the colonel started for this placa at
the head of thre companies leaving
the remainder under the command of
Lieut- Col. Waters to protect that
place until he could icturn. On the
evening of the Hlh while in the act
of camping Col. (lillium was acci
dentally thot and killed instantly. He
ttlrd to a wagon to get a rope to
stake his hor. with. It being thrown
with other things promiscuously ia
the wagon on sums loaded guns. One
of the wagoners, in the act of getting
his rope for him and not teeing the
guns, caught hold of some mata that
were lying on the guna to throw
them out of the wagon, and in the
act of doing to pulled the hammer
back and it fired. The ramrod being
in the gun, the bullet glanced and I
do not think it touched him. The
ramrod hit him in the head jut above
the eyes and caused instant death.
It it a horrid thing that our com
mander should lose his life in that
manner. The regiment is in a bad
situation at this time, destitute of
everything that is necessary to carry
on a war.
We left our fellow soldiers above in
a bad condition, almost destitute of
ammunition. They had not more than
forty rounds of balls when we left
them and it is our business down to
this pitce to procure ammunition and
return immediately to their relief,
but when we came we found no am
munition here. We will have to wait
until we can get some; it is useless
to go back without it and what their
situation is or may be before we can
get to their relief I cannot tell. 1
cannot tell what the people of the
Williamette valley are thinking about
for they certainly do not know their
own interest or they would send us
men and means lor carrying on the
sst. We must not abandon and give
up the war under existing circum
stances. If we do we may expect to
fight at home. There is no danger in
the Willamette valley so long as we
keep a sufficient force in this upper
country but if they do not tend us
some men and means we must and
are compelled to abandon the enter
prise. We are not strong enough;
if we were we have not the jneans
otherwise. We have s. formidable en
emy to contend with. They niu&t
send us troops and ammunition if
(illegible) us ot we cannot get any
in safety. Send us up men and we
will soon flay the enemy and bring
them to terms of peace.

Colonel Cornelius Gilliam, the of
ficer who led the punitive expedition
formed by the pioneers aganist the
Indians who had perpetrated the
Whitman Massacre, was a relative of
Frank Giliam of this city and the
man for whom Giliiam county was
named. The following sketch of his
life is taken from an interview given
by the Colonel's daughter, Mrs. Mar
tha Gilliam Collins to Fred Lockley.
It was published in Vol. xvii of the
Oregon Historical Quarterly. Mrs.
Collins died at her home in Dallas,
Oregon, March 6 of this year.
Colonel Gilliam was a native of
North Carolina, born in 1798. As a
young man, he moved to Missouri.
There he was married to Mary Craw
ford in 1820. Of this union three
children are mentioned. Smith, Mark,
and Martha. When the Biack Hawk
war broke out, Colonel Gilliam vol
unteered, fought through that war,
also through the Florida Seminole
Indian war, in which he rose to the
rank of captain. Following the close
of this war be returned to Missouri.
In civil life, he held the office of
sheriff, was twice sent to the legisla
