Both horses were brought in. We reached our camping ground on the north side of "Old Man's Creek" about 6:00 o'clock, after having used every precaution to guard against being deceived by the Indians — having kept out the most experienced spies and a very strong guard front, rear and fiank, during the day. Soon after our arrival we discovered a small party of men in our advance, sup- posed at this time to be a part of our front guard. Lieutenant Gridley being then mounted, passed up a ravine fo...r the purpose of ascertaining. It was soon after however, ascertained that our spies with the whole of our ad- vanced guard had come in. Captain Covell with a party detached, followed.
On the approach of Lieutenant Gridley, while rising the bluff, the Indians faced and leveled their guns. When prudence directed a return, the Indians pursued and were met by Captain Covell at nearly the same moment, when the fire was exchanged without effect.
The Indians retreated and were pursued. Three were killed and three taken, with a loss of one of our men (as supposed ) Our men were all imme- diately formed and took their march in the direction of Sycamore creek, five miles above.
