Calloway objected to this but the other Indians laid hold or tryed to lay hold of the other hand but Colonel Calloway was the first that jerked away from them but the Indians seized the men two Indians holt of one man or it was mostly the case and did their best to hold them but while the man and Indians was a scuffling the men from the Fort agreeable to Col.
They kinder eyed them steps, but they didn't say nothin'." For a moment Garvin's chief henchman walked the floor, then he snarled out, "Did they ask anything erbout me?" "Jim Calloway 'lowed that somebody'd done seed you in this country, an' I said no, that you was over thar in Virginny."
