were the last three men in. The
following Sioux were 40 yards off
our lails. As we were almost to
the frees a terrific shout went up
from them.
Before starting from CtHter's

gotten me an old aniform from
supply. A sergeant's faded chev-
rons adorned the sleeves of the
jtn ket. It had been a dark, hur-
ried issue, the supply sergeant not
caring whether he made me a cor-
poral or a brigadier. This uniform
had covered my identity at longer
ranges but on.e the hawk-eyed
Sienx got in close they spotted me.

like a pack of blue-tick hounds
belling a dog-eoon in a swamp hol-
low at midnight. White Bull, one
of Sitting Bull's nephews and ap-
parency in command on our front,
lashed his pony forward.
Then the pistol was bucking Irs
my right hand. Three empty ponies
blundered on into the wood. Mc-
fnfosh knocked one off his pony
wirh .a clubbed carbine and I put
mv last two shots into him as he
fell.

blow but had laid the scalp open
to the skull. From that moment he
was a blown man, and though he
fought his command through to the
blufftops. he was sick with pain
the whole time.
"Clayton, listen." he rasped, as
Mcintosh left to fetch Moylan, the
senior captain. "I can scarcely hear
or see. Don't tell French or Moy-
lan. You stay here with me. you
hear?"
I nodded, smiling. Then, my lips
fo his good ear, I shouted, "Yca've
picked an aide. Got my decree
under Jeb Stuart. Postgraduate
with Fitzhugh Lee."
He bobbed his head, dark pain
stabbing his eyes at the move-
ment. "I believe you. You took

" Intosh, the Sioux meanwhile
slacking tire as they moved their
forces into new positions.
"All right. Major," Moylan said
"Where do we go from here?"
"God knows. But I say up to
those bluffs is our only change
Get up there and stay there «r —
do you say, eh?"
"We can't make it!"
"Well, we've g:.t to. Captain." I
talked fast, before he could worry
too much about my qualifications.
"If we stay here they'll get the
horses. I know Indians and their
thinking. Right now they'll be
seeping in around French's flank
over there on the right, trying to
get in and stampede the horses. We
can't handle the mounts if they get
panicky. Not and have any men
left to keep up a fir^j. If the Sioux
get us afoot down here on the
flat, we're dead."
"Oh, where is Custer?" broke in
Reno, querulously.
"And Benteen," added Mcintosh.
"God knows about Benteen," I
hurried on, "but I think Custer's
tried to go around. He was con-
vinced the Hunkpapa and Oglala
were down south. He's gone
around to hit them. We can't -wait
any longer, anyhow." I had tn
shout over the rising Sioux fire. 1
"We've got to mount, up and make |
a run for those west bluffs."
"Give the command. MovTan."
Reno's instruction was decisive.
