Abstract

"War and rumors of war were rife, a vague uneasiness rested upon the isolated families of eastern Oregon. The government, with its usual stupidity and criminal negligence had failed to provide any adequate protection against the numerous hordes of savages that roamed the plains. The few straggling companies of blue coats that were within reach were as a rule poorly offered and totally inacquainted with Indian tactics and were held in supreme contempt by their dusky opponents."
