AN
INCIDENT IN . THE
' ; WARS. .
INlflAN
(By J. 11. Elgin, SaTem. Oregon.) -
OItT Henrietta and Booth had
Just been coroplesd but the
soldiers : were, yet - encamped
oh the outside of the stock
ade. It was the morning of
y'1 November 15, breakfast was
over, and the men; were engaged in
different occurations;f some had gone
down to the Umatilla to seat h for In
dian cache of potatdea, caraa, dried
salmon, or any thing else that could
be found; others bad gone to the sur
rounding hllla to sheot mu'e rabbits;
a guard of twelve men had taken the
horses about three mile west from the
camp to graxe; end the remainder were
around the camp taking -things easy.
Everything seemingly was quiet and
peaceful- " '-'-'- -!' "-.' '
Suddenly several of the men came
ruahing Into camp In great consterna
tion and reported that about three
hundred Indians were advancing up t
the fort from the direction of the Wal
la Walla. The excitement became in
tense for a few hour. The soldier
were glven their positions on the out
side of the stockade to await develop
ments. As soon as the InJlan came
In sight,, they halted on a high point
overlooking the soldier' position.
When the Indians, had first been .re
ported. It waa thought beat by some
to send a relief to' those -In .charge of

thinking it would be of no use. Oil hb
rffusal Sergeant John Ashcraft,. a
Mexican war, veteran, volunteered to
go to their assistance atone. ni:
mounting the. only horse In the corral
without stopping to saddle it, he reach
ed tho guard in time to warn them
of the approach, of the Indians, so that
all reached the fort safely, bringing
tht horse with them.
This heroic act of John Ashcraft is
worthy of permanent record. . To ven
ture alone, seemingly to almost certain
danger. If not death, requires courage
In the truest sense. He was a nobb
man whose name deserves a la.i'.lng
place on the pages of Oregon history,
lie died at Hubbard. Oregon. I a few
years ago. . v "' .'.-'',,
When the Indlans r,aw that they ha
been foiled In their attempt to capture
the horses, they, soon made a. hast)
retreat; for they could see that th
soldiers were getting ready to dc fen,
themselves. If an Immediate attack
had been made upon the Indian they
might easily have, been defeated, but
the major would not allow them fo!
lowed until It was too late to overtake
them that day. : About sunset he gave
orders that fifty men- might pursue tlu
Indians. He stood by the gate of the
fort and counted the men a tjheyrame
out; Ham Warfleld was the &ist man
and the major commanded him to halt.
Some angry words were exchanged
The: major irw his revolver but War-
field was too quick for him; he had lev
eled his gun on th maJor , before he
could use hla revolver and made him
beg with tears for merry. While this
scene wa being enacted the rest of the
men had gone out at the other gate.
and after It was . over the major, was
very much chagrined to find himself
alone. Ever after he was held in scorn
by the men who -seemed to take great
df-Iight In humiliating him.' ' . ;
The heat day the officers held a coun
cil, but the major opposed every iu-
gstlon made by the others. Two or
the lieutenants aaked to-be' allowed to
take 123 men and go to Waila Walla
leaving thirty with the major at the
fort; but he would not consent to thi.
On the following day. however, he or-

twenty-five men eould safely make the
trip from lmatHTa to -Walla Walla, nut
the little band did not hesitate to make
the trial, . ,
Al.ut two hours from sunset the
men were in their ' saddles" and mov
ing rapidly over the hlja 1" the dlree-
ti of Wail Walla. They h not
gone far before they discovered In the
distance ahead of them an Indian who
wa riding in a. circle on the top of a
Mgh bill. ' This w a a signal to' hla
frle-nds that the soldier were com in g.
and by thnumber of eirrle that he
role he lndl,-afed t he number In the
band. " The company jrode at double
quick;' and lfore It became tfark had
reached ae point aomwhat beyond
a-here the Indian bad been sfgnating.

and brid'es were ".muffled so the clicking
could not. be heard and with great care,
and quiet' they crossed over fto a par

reaching , without 1 being discovered.
They followed up thia canyon and
reached safety at the fort, leaving the
Indiana to watch throughout the night
and no doubt to feel great disappoint
ment on finding when dayl ght came
that their victim had escaijed, ,
On reaching the fort 'thelcgmpany
found that the major had dispatched
fifty "men under Capt. LaytoiJ to follow
them and give assistance if needed.
Thia company had been unable to ov
ertake the first company, and it waa
now feared that they mlfthjt be ur
prised by the Indians and klld or cap
tured. The major with all the men ex

returning, bringing with thejm a band
