On thc morning of tho 20th ot Jnne, 1S4C, wo gathered on tho I-n Creole, near where Dallss now stands, moved up tho valley nnd en camped for tho sight on Mary's riv er, near whore the town ot Corvallls baa slnco been built. Juno 21 Moved up tho valley and encamped among tho foot-hills of tho Calapoola mountains. Juno 22 This day wo traveled long the baso of tho Calapoolas, our course being nearly southeast, pass ing near a prominent peak slnco call ed Spenccr'a Dutte. In a little valley near tho buttc, on tho south side, vjo discovered Indians digging cam as. On perceiving us most of them secreted themselves lu tho timber. One of our party succeeded In cop- tuxlne an old Indian, and represent- lirR to him by signs tho courtc' we wished to follow, tho old fellow pre coded us two or thrco miles, and put us on a dim trail which had been marked by twisting tho tops of tho brush alone tho route. It had only bocu used as a foot-trail and but seldom at that. It led us out Into a prairies at tho baso ot tho main Cal apoola chain. Crossing tho pralrlo we found tho little trail whore It entered the mountains with difficulty, and bolng guided by the broken brush, reached ot sundown a little stream on tho Umpqua sldo, wero. wo on campod for tho night In a beautiful llttlo valley where tho grass wan good and tho ground almost covered with tho finest strawberries I had over ocon. runlet tlio Cmpqiin Tho next morning, June 23, wo moved on through the grassy oak hills and narrow valleys to tho north Umpqua river, Tho crossing was n rough and dungorous one, as tho rivor bod was a mass of loose, rocks, . and, as wo wero crossing, our horcos occasionally fell, giving tho riders n severe ducking. On tho couth 'sldo we encamped for tho night. On tho morning of tho 21th, wo left camp early and moved on about five miles to tho south branch of tho Umpqua, a considerable stream, probably sixty yards wido, coming from tho eastward. Traveling up that stream almost to tho place whore the old trail crosses tho Ump- encamped for tho historic Umpqua wo could too that they approached very closely to our encampment. Making nn early start wo moved on very cautiously. Whenever tho trail passed through thickets we dis mounted, and led our horses, having our guns In hand ready at any mom ent to use them In self-defense, for wo had adopted this rule, never to bo tbo aggressor.

During tho afternoon onr courso was over n moro open country through scat tering pine and oak timber. To wards ovcnlng. wo taw a good many Indians postod along tho mountain sldo and now and cn running ahead ot us. About an hour by sun we reached a pralrlo 1 1 several hun, dred acres, which extends down to very near tho bank of Itoguo river. As wo advanced towards tho river, tho Indians In largo numbers occu pied Tho river bank near whero the trail crossed, Having understood that this crossing was a favorlto place of attack, we decided as It was growing late, to pass tho night In tho prairie. Selecting a place as far from tho brush as possible, wo made every preparation for a night attack.. Caution Savci From Attack In selecting our camp on Rogue river we observed the greatest cau tion. Cutting stakes from the limbs of nn old oak that stood In tho open ground, wo picketed our horses with doublo stakes as firmly as possible. Tho horses wero picketed In tbo form ot a hollow square, outside of which wo took up our positions, knowing that In cats of an attack thcro would bo a chanco of losing our horses and that that would bo a complcto defeat. Wo kept vigilant guard during tho night, and, tho noxt morning could seo tho Indians occupying tho samo position oa nt dork. After an early breakfast wo began to mnko preparations for moving forward. Thcro had been a hoavy dew, and fearing tho effects ot tho dampnoss upon our fire-arms, which wero muxzlo-loaders, of course, nnd somo of them with flint-' locks, we fired thum off and ro-load-' od. In moving forward, "Wo formed i two divisions, with' tho pack horses.! behind. On reaching tho river band tho front division fell behind tho pack horses and drove them over, whllo tho rear division faced tho brush, with gun In hand, until tbo ' front division was uafoly over. Then j they turned about, and tho roar divi sion passed over under protection ot their rifles. Tho Indians watched tho performance from their places ot concealment, but thcro wan no chanco for them to make an attack without exposing thomsclvcs to our flro. Tbo river was deep and rapid, and for a short distance some of tho smaller animals bad to swim. Had wo rushed pell-moll Into tbo stroam, as parties sometimes do under such circumstances, our expedition would probably have come to an end thcro.
