To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
No trains crossed the plains that season without being attacked, and none but those with strong military escorts es- caped capture and destruction. Houses and barns on the frontier were fired, stock of all kinds was nowhere secure, large and small parties were at- tacked, men, women, and children murdered. In fact, the year 1864 will be sadly remembered as long as the present generation of frontiersmen lives. The commanders of the different military departments bordering on this territory, had,... with the few men at their command, sent out during the summer several expeditions, as escorts to trains, but they had ac- complished no more than to accord safety to their different charges, as the mode of Indian warfare is to only give battle when they have all of the advantages. * In the month of October, 1864, Brigader General James H. Carleton, United States Volunteers then commanding the Department of New Mexico, believing that the Commanches and Kiowas might be found, on the south side of the Canadian river, in winter quarters, issued a general order, directing an expedition against these Indians.
