A soldier-doctor of our army, James PKimball, late colonel and assistant surgeon-general, . 130 A SOLDIER-DOCTOR a bottomless creek, horses break loose — al-most stampeded by coyotes; but the partyarrives at the famous Indian pueblo of on the Santa Fe Railroad often meetsome of these Indians with their pottery forsale, near Albuquerque.

We allgo to the village with him, and are receivedin his mansion [doubtless, one of the cells inthe pueblo hive]. He wants ten dollars fromus for the privilege oi doing and photographingthe town, but compromises on two dollars,and I begin with him and staff.
