Abstract

"Rose at a good hour. Considerable wind but no rain. Spent most of the morning in writing. Finished off Dr. Suckley's letter. Wrote one to thank McAuliff for his paper and note and hoped he would not forget me out here then gave him the news. Commenced a letter to Mrs. Haller, also. Saw Col. Wright and arranged to send Sergt. Roper back to the Dalles as the Colonel wanted me to send a sergeant to assist Capt. Jordan in commanding the enlisted men. Dr. Randolph told me I ought to send in Prv. Bodeaux as he was too sick to march and would not recover for a very long time. He and the sergt will return with the pack train on next Monday, the 9th instant. Capt. Archer propsed that I should ride with him down the Nachess River about 6 miles to see some hieroglyphics. He and Lt. Carr and myself rode down the banks of the river and at the point where the Qui-wi-ches empties into the Nachess there is a most singular formation of rocks."
