Friday 19^th Oct. [Traveled 11 miles from Huntsville to Middle Chariton (Salisbury), Missouri.]

Early this morning the Indians were busily engaged in making preparations for a march. At 8 o’clock we were on the way. At 12 we reached encampment on Middle Chariton River, 11 miles from the camp of last night. The day was cold and clear - they journey however was accomplished without the distress of Wednesday. The Indians still seem to be anxious to reach their destination.
