Nov 20th 1857
To His Excellency Gov B. Young
Ex-officio & Superintendent
of Indian Affairs

Dear Sir--

with Capt. Fauchers Co of Emigrants passing
through to California about the middle of Sept.

to eat, causing 4 of them to die immediately besides
poisoning a number more the Co. also
poisoned the waters where they encamped, killing
many of the cattle of the settlers; this unguided
policy planed in wickedness by the Co. raised
