His men dying about him, without his being able to afford them re lief, was something impossible for him to face without a struggle for their assistance. A greater danger than all was yet to be encoun tered, if the right measures were not taken im mediately. There was not enough food left to ration the men, and unless more came they would starve. If a scout was sent, his progress was so slow, hiding all day and travelling only by night, it would take so long that there might be men dying from h...unger as well as cholera, before he could return with aid. And, besides this scarcity of food, the medical supplies were insufficient. The General, prompt always in action, suddenly determined to relieve the be leaguered place by going himself for medicines and rations. He took a hundred men to guard the wagons, and in fifty-five hours they were at Fort Hays, one hundred and fifty miles distant. It was a terrible journey. My little valise was filled long before it was necessary for us to take the return train that evening.
