WABIIITA RIVER, Indian Territory, Fifth
Month, 1670.-LEaitor of the , •Evening
Phi/adetphia.--EsTEE3rign FRIEND:
lam now in the Indian country, *here I see
but little of any persons but Indians), and as it
has been my intention ever since "I engaged in
the Indian service to give my friends at home
some information in relation to these people, I
will, in the first place, say something of our
journey here and the incidents connected with
We left Lawrence, Kansas, on the 28th of
last month, our company consisting of my
wife and myself and Isabella, the young wo-"
man who came with us from Philadelphia, and
traveled by rail to the Agency of the Kaw
Indians, on the southern branch of the Kansas
Pacific Railway. After We left Lawrence my wife
observed to me. that it Was the same day of the
month we reached there, eight-months' before,
from Philadelphia. At that time we felt as if
we had separated ourselves, by a long distance,
from our friends and all that was near and
dear to us, but now we were increasing the
distance by three or four hundred miles, and
leaving civilization,and commencing a journey,
not by the rapid motion and easy movement
of the railway train, but by the tedious and
tiresome journeying of mule teams and loaded
wagons.
After spending a day or two with our kind
friends at the Agency, we proceeded to a point
a few miles distant, where we met, by previous
arrangement, our wagons and a Company 'of
" friends," who were going to a reservation
within about forty-five miles of our destination.
One mule-wagon we had loaded at Lawrence .
had arrived, and another had been chartered to
start from this point to carry us and the bag
gage we had brought by rail. Our fellow
travelers had two wagons, making, in all four
teams ; and we numbeled eleven persons, in
cluding"two men that were to return.
It was after dinner, on the day of our de
parture, when we commenced our journey
across the plains in earnest, and traveling a
distance Of fifteen miles over an interest
ing country, crossing the Cottonwood river and
two or three of its tributaries, we encamped for
the. night beside a small brook, on the open
prairie. My wife having been an invalid for
a long time, and still far from having
regained her former strength, a trial of our
faith and courage was now brought closely
belie to us, and some misgivings as to the pru
dence of ,this unde'rtaking began to present
themselves. But, after partaking of our repast
in the open air, we retired to our wagons,
where our beds were prepared, and after ex
amining the motive for which this journey was
undertaken, and consigning ourselves into the
care and keeping of Him the eye of whom
never slumbers, we were soon relieved from all
anxiety by • sleep. Next morning we were
very early astir; a beautiful, clear morning
opened upon us, and, after a comfortable
breakfast, we were soon on our way, re
freshed, invigorated, and, I think I may say,
not without a confiding trust that we would be
cared for and protected by an overruling Provi
dence.
The day's journey was not marked by any
thing particularly worthy of note, except that
at the place where we dined there was a re
markable spring of water flowing from under
the bed of rocks that formed the base of a hill
that arose to a considerable elevation, the water
running across the road in a stream sullicient
for driving a considerable amount of , machinery.
Towards evening some prairie chickens were
shot by some of the company, Ihus providing
for the invalid, for whom we had some fears
lest we should have a difficulty in procuring
fresh provisions for her, which her state of
health seemed to require; but we were now
not only furnished for her, but for others. As
evening came on we turned from our road a
a few hundred yards, and came into a beautiful
little valley beside the " Walnut," a very pretty
clear stream—a tributary to the Arkansas river
---where-we-camped--for---the-night. —Here we
met a _party. who _had_encamped in_the
valley, and were seeking a. borne in the far
West.- The night was clear, the air cool and
bracing, and everything was as favorable
for our comfort as a beautiful country without
settlements, camping iu the open air under a
_clear bine sky, with the - stays shining over our
beads - aml_ailew moon reflecting her scanty
light, far away from home and friends, would
permit. Retiring under these circumstances,
and the night being passed in refreshing sleep,
we arose next morning strengthened and
• Invigorated; ready - for ;another - day's ;
and after traveling ten or twelve miles anit
crossinethe'AValnuti we came to - Eldentdo:
• Shia is a town on the rairie and' near the
•Walnut, which has sprung up within a short
Itime, around' which settlemeqs are being
made, and. which see= to _be improving, a
good deal of energy being displayed in op ping

visible, the water running oil' through an

inlet could not be seen, but I was informed
there was a similar stream underground
farther .up_ the hill, which 1 suppose supplied
this - peel frotri"beneatE - ' After partaking of .
our dinner and filling all onr spare vessels ugh
water, preparatory to enc,aniping,that night on,
the open prairie, we proceeded on our journey
to' the ." Wbite• Water," a tributary of 'the',
Arkansas, where we procured some wood to
carry with us to. our camping=,ground, as thd
place at - which we proposed stepping was With
out wood or water. . Arriving at a ravine "where
there was, some , protection from the .windfand
Where there was good pasture for our mules
arid horses,' we pitched our tent and camped
for the night. Just as we were finishing our
meal and talking over the peculiarity of our'
arrangements ' and perhaps contrasting them
with those of our friends at hone, we. - were
surprised and startled' by two or three
Ones , driving up, coming in the same di
rection we were traveling, in ,which were a
number_ of_ gentlernanly4ooking men, bearing
the marks of civilizntion and comfort; who,
' alighting, came forward to our circle, and, after
exchanging civilities, being asked the question :
" Are you : prospecting for`, 'a • railroad?" we
were soon released from all suspense by the
answer in the affirmative, and that they were
examining the country from Emporia, on the
southern branch of the Kansas-Pacific road, to
Wachitw, on `the Arkansas river. We furnished
them with some coffee and when thdy hid
refreshed themselves they continued their
•
_journey, in,tbe moonlight,and we turned in to
partake of the,repose for wbieh a day's travel,
in good health.and spirits, bad prepared us. As
the 'clouds threatened rain, we guarded our
exposed : lodging place With extra :care, to :pro
tect_ oursenen. from the storm ,' but a 'slight ,
Showei ohly; accompanied with lightning - and'
thunder, passed ;Over us, but did not disturb
The: next' day, about noon, we reached.
Whichita, on the Arkansas river, at the Mouth
of the Little Arkansas. Wichita is a small
town scattered over a considerable space, and
is the last seittement we found on our road to
this couritry,,until we mule to the Agency of
the Cheyi:nne and Arrapahoe Indians, on the
North,Fork of the Canadian river. After
.dining here, we doubled otir teams and forded
the river. The road on each side, as well as
the bed of the Aver, being of 'Movable sand,
makes the l crossing hekvy, and renders it neces-•
sary to strengthen', teams in passsing over.
That night weiencamped on the Cowskin, a
small stream, berdir with, wood, which flown
into the Arkansas. Next morning we started,
as usual, at a pretty early honr, and continued
our journey to' the Chakaska river, to make
our camping place,• nothingipecurring unusual,
except that this day and for some days after we
rapt:drove er drove of Texas cattle, which
were being driien to the Nansas, and Pacific
Riilroad for shipreent to Chicago and other
points east. - Some ofthe larger droves con
tained from 1,000 to 1,500 head, and were at
tended by one or two principal men and
ten •or twelve drivers. Having met
some of these men on State creek, where they
had camped the night before, theyfurnished;w3
with some buffalo veal, which was very accep
table to us, as we were beginning to want
somafresh meat. They had captured two
calves/ one of which they had alive in their
wagon. To-day - we crossed Bluffereek, and
leaving Kansas we entered the - Indian Terri
tory, having left our camping-ground on the
Chakaska — at an early hour, as was our cus
tom.
In the afternoon buffalo began to appear,—
the first our little company had ever seen on
their native ground. They seemed to be
making their way, to the north. The few small
herds that were on the south side of the road
would start off in their peculiar "lope" as
soon as our wagons would come in sight, and
crossing the road ahead of us, join those on the
other side. They kept at some distance frOm
us, but were frequently near enough to give us
a tine view of the herds. In the evening,
having reached Pond creek, a pleasant
camping-place, we pitched our tent, and again,
after the usual process of collecting fuel and
making a fire, boiling the kettle and preparing
tea, coffee and cocoa (there being a variety of
taste as to beverage), frying, baking, &c.,and
enjoying a comfortable repast, we retired for
the night to partake of that repose for which
the fatigue of the journey, modified by the pe
culiarly exhilarating and invigorating character
of the air and winds of the plains, had prepared
Is.
"Gobble, gobble, gobble!" was the first
thing that greeted our ears next morning, and
pretty, soon after a flue wild turkey was taken,
which served us a first-class meal.
Soon afterthe sun had tipped the tops of the
trees and summits of the hills with his rays, we
were on our way for a day's journey, which
was not without incidents of interest. Pretty
soon a wolf trotted off from near the road
across the prairie. We were now in the Prairie
Dog country; but what are called "prairie
dog villages" do not seem to apply
to the homes of this curious little
animal along this road, except, perhaps, where
we firat enter their settlements. Instead of
being tillages, they are thickly settled together,
a continuous town of two or three days' travel.
Uheir burrows were on. either side of us, and
in many instances immediately in the road, and
they (the little animals) were to be seen in all
directior* standing straight on their hind legs,
watching us as we passed, and with theirfoecit
liar bark warning us to keep off. If we ap
proached too near they would dart into! heir
holes, returning instantly to take another: 0k.,... ,

and then disappear. But as their habits-,and
appearance are pretty fully treated of by natu
ralists, it is not necessary for me to enter into
a description of them. Early in the day buf
falo were again in sight, in increasing mimbers,
and before nild-day they were spread out over
the plain, mostly on the north side of the road,
lining the horizon from southwest to east
of north, as far as they could be seen. This
most imposing sight was made still more •
interesting by the, illusive -appearance pre
sented along the horizon in different places, of
lakes with trees along their borders, and of
cattle bathing their limbs in the clear water, re
quiring but little stretch of the imagination to
suppose we were iu one of the most beautiful
of countries, with its lakes and parks and culti
vated gromids, where all had been done that
art, refinement of .taste.and skill coUld.do. ,to
beautify and adorn. The weather being com
paratively clear, the illusion continued at times
for several days, varied in appearance accord
mg to the face of the country and the material
on the surface of the ground. I had frequently
heard of the mirage on the plains and at sea,
but they lutVe to be seen to fully understand
their appearance.
I had an idea.that the buffalo kept in com
pact herds, of a few hundred perhaps, but here
they were spread over the prairies by thou
sands, for miles and miles—indeed we were
not out of sight of butialo for the remainder - of
that day, and for at least 2j days 'buffalo
-t- were -in sight.: - - These vast herds
were too tempting for some of our corn-

night, whichmerely laid .the dust,. and made

heavy thunder, the lightning being 'vivid and
in streamers peculiar to the prairies, and there
was quite a shower of rain: Breakfast was
prepared, however, and soon despatched, and
we were on the, road at nearly the usual hour,
for a long day's travel over a heavy, sandy
road. ,Crossing "Red. Fork" and. Ningfisher,
where we,. dined, •we , reached ' the
Agency of the Cheyenne and Arrapalme In
dians, on the north fork Of the Canadian river,
- at a lite' hour in the evening. Here we were'
kindly received by Agent Darlington...and his
son-in-laW and' daughter and a , numberot
friends who are engaged-at the Agency in In
dian work, with some of whom we bad a short
acquaintance, having seen them as they were
on their way to this country. It was pleasant
and cheering to meet these"friends, althongh
they had but feW comforts even for themselves.
The agent had arrived here buta few hours be-.
fore us, the Agency _being new r arid ' they
were just removing to this place trom another
point. .
I'Ve spent but one night here, starting next
day for the Washita, river, where we proposed
making our home, for a time, among the
Wichita and affiliated bands of Indians.
Those who accompanied us from Kansas for
this Agency remained ; but we were joined by
several men who were on their way to Fort
Sill, which is about forty miles south of the
Washita. We found them pleasant Company,
and ready to assist us and render those little
attentions which add to one's comfort, and
which were the more appreciated by us from
the circumstances which called them forth.
We found, toward evening, that we could
not reach our destination without traveling
pretty far into the night, so we caMped again
in a very pretty valley amid the solitude`with
which we had become familiar.
This was our last camping-ground. Meals
in the open air and wagons for our lodging
place were now over. A few hours' ride brought
us to the Washita - Valley, where we found
shelter, and where, for a time, we expect to be
located. JONATHAN RICHARDS.

While the - efforts of the' Yonkers .(West
chester. county) police have thus far.failed to
diseover any etidence. of fonl-play ire connec
tion with,thedisappearthice of Dr. Walter' H.
Foster; information ham 'reached them which
may in ashort- time- afford a solution of the.
missing man's absence. •
The tutelligence alluded to places Foster in
an tthenvitible, and; at best, suspicious posi
tion, and Indy result in the unmasking of a'
worthless adventurer,, whose hypoczisy has
pulp been equaled by his assurance.; • ,
From iriforination obtained qty Sergeant
Flandrau at,F.oster's late, boarding-hou.se,yes
terdayjt appeared that before leaving; on'
the afternoon of the tali imd, he appeared
much excited, and after remarking that he
NMI going on the river inquired about the
New Jersey shore opposite, and how far back
- - - the railroad was. It Wa.s further learned that
he took-with-him a small package containing.
a change of light underclothing. It may here
be stated that the telegram sent from Yonkers
-- on Tuesday - morning to Portland; Me.; was
answered on a late hour on that evening, and
set forth:that Foster " had , not been there in
two months." The message. which was sent
to a person whom Foster had always given
his wile to understand was his "mother," was
not answere&by her, but bore the signature of
another woman. It will be remembered that
the unhappy wife of the missing man did not
wait for a reply to her telegram,but proceeded
to Portland herself. The cause of her doing
so may be inferred from the folloWing circum
stances ,
When Foster first arrived in Yonkers he
was heard to remark that the only person he
knew in that - village was a Swedenborgian
clergyman, whose acquaintance he had formed
in the army, where the latter was chaplain
. and he himself assistant .surgeon. This gen- '
tleman was informed of the circumstance
after the missing man had left, but he failed to
recollect having met Foster in the army. He
subsequently was the first to communicate to
Mrs. Foster the intelligence of her missing
husband, and during the interview was -made
familiar with circumstances which reminded
him Viet he bad met Foster before.- The lady
informed her auditor that she had been mar
ried to Foster only three years, and previous
'to that event she was a widow with six chil
dren. Her first' husbandi having been • sue.
•cessful in mercantile affairs, was enabled., at
his death to leave his family in comfortable,.
circumstances a handsome legacy being set
:tied on each'. of his children, while their:
mother was bequeathed a life-interest in the
entire estate. She spoke highly of
Mr. Foster as a polished gentleman and
a kind affectionate husband.
When asked about her husband's relatives
and what State he was from, the lady replied
that his.-native city was Portland;' where he
had always informed her his mother (a Mrs.
Southgate) resided in comparative affluence.
She had not yet seen this person, however,
but had on several occasions, written to, her,
,although she had never received •a reply: to
any of her 'notes. Occasionally her husband '
would visit Portland, and on his return would
bring verbal answers from his "mother,"
breathing . the most affectionate regard for her
daughteran-Jaw.. Indeed, on one occasion,
Foster having been ostensibly on a visit to his
"mother,", took-bome a silver tea - service
- valued at $500,• Which he presented to Mrs.
Foster as "a bridal gift from his mother."
After listening to the above, which was told
without reserve, the clergyman felt it his duty
to inform the lady that while stationed as a
Methodist minister in Portlaild, a few years
•ago, be became acquainted' with Foster, who
was then a medical student ; that subsequently ,
the latter had seriously injured his reputation,
by a supposed intimacy with'a divorced matron
. named Soutbgate,Who ' kept a lodging-house
for young gentlemen, and in whose. establish
' inent FoSter diVelt and always appeared at
home. The relationship which was believed
to exist between , Foster and this woman gave
rise' to a world of scandal, which ultimately
induced the former to quit his native place:
Tliiti tistothicling information -(regarding'
Foster's connection with the erson named - ; ,
• coining from a source which 'Was entirely
worthy of credence, did not fail to shock the .
