3rd At 10 oclock Br Pratt returned in
company with Br Benson
who had been nominated to fill
the place And wear the crown of John
E Page they wished me to return
to the Bluffs with them so I saddld
my Horse & started And had an inter-
esting time once more with Br Parley And
to add to the interest of the days ride we passed
through the main village of the Potawattame
Indians the first time I ever passed through
A large village of indians in my life After
viewing the village & indians awhile And drinking
out of A cold spring we continued our journey
we rode untill dark then unsaddled our Horses
And we made our bed in the grass on the
side of A Hill but the Musketoes soon routed
us out And we had to go to the top of the Hill
And again lay down & spent the night in the
wind I felt quite stiff & sore in the morning
