Crossing out of the territory of Alabama into that of Mis- sissippi, somewhere within the limits of the present county of Lauderdale, De Soto pursued a course a little north of west, until he came probably near the site of Carthage in Leake County, when he turned almost due north. After eight or ten days' march in that direction he arrived at the village of Chicasa, in the present territory of Yalobusha. This place was composed of about two hundred small houses or wigwams, very inferior and dif...ferent in construction from those further South ; but it was now late in December, and the governor decided to winter there. The natives had all fled on the approach of the army, though they left abund- ant supplies of corn and provisions, much of the former still standing in the fields. As the houses were too small to ac- commodate the entire company, the Spaniards now set to work and constructed a number of others, and also fortified the place as a precaution against any assaults the natives might be disposed to make upon them.
