The first companies galloped up the base of a range of hills to the east, and formed if the struggle, forty-eight Indians were lying together in a heap, which showed how bravely they had fought for life. Lieut. Quinn, with a small detachment, had entered the ravine from the east, and did, in the language of report, excellent executions breaking.
