120 HISTORY OF THE CHAPTER IX. On the twenty -seventh, the army reached Car- thage, Missouri, a village that had been partially destroyed with fire by a band of bushwhackers, some five weeks previous. Here they found the ambulance that contained the medicines belonging to the rebel army almost entirely consumed by fire ; together with aban- doned arms, horses, saddles and camp equipage ; everything indicating a panic in the rebel ranks, and extreme haste in their endeavor to outstrip their purs...uers. On the twenty-eighth, the near presence of the foe became distinct. Therefore Colonel Ford, commanding the Brig- ade, ordered Captain Holloway's Company (L) to proceed as skirmishers, and hard and desperate encounters took place, resulting in the entire routing of Price's army ; throwing death and dis- may through his whole command. Many deeds of valor and bravery could be recited of the Second Colorado and their brave companions in arms on that eventful compaign : very much is lost to history, as those who were witness rest in their graves.
