Owing to the drying up of the Platte river and its tributaries, large numbers of stock have died for the want of water above Fort Kearney. " 2 The year 1864 and early 1865 was one of the historic drought periods. The Leavenworth Daily Times, February 24, 1864. Re- ported cryptically: "Wind and dust, varied occasionally by dust and wind. " Three days later the Kansas Tribune, Lawrence, con- tinued the story: Yesterday was windy, dusty, clear and cloudy, all in twelve hours. In the forenoon, the ...wind blew terribly, with a clear sky, except smoke and dust, in the afternoon, cloudy, smoky, light atmosphere, and but little wind.
The spring climax seems to have been reached March 27, 1864, with a "total eclipse of daylight" as told by the Junction City Union, April 2: March, 1864, faded away amidst a variety of weather. Saturday [March 26] would have done honor to July; Sunday [March 27] morning a furious South wind, filling the air with dust, rendered it intolerably disagreeable. About four o'clock in the afternoon, black and threatening clouds rose in the West, the lightning flashed, and the wind even grew more furious.
