1873 May 29 - 1873 August 15 1.0 Volume(s) Request Item

A.C. Peale, Diary, May 29 - Aug. 15, 1873 Topics include work in the Cretaceous beds gathering fossils, brief descriptions of canyons, and volcanic peaks, and brief accounts of his ascent of Pike's Peak and Buffalo Peak, and describes difficulties crossing the Platte. Describes encounters with locals such as a German "Dutchman" named Pap, a ranch owner. Expedition members Taggart and Gannett share a camp with several miners at Hamilton who tell of Hamilton's decline from boom times. When the expedition's flour supply dwindles to six pounds, the miners give them 80 more pounds in exchange for some bacon. Near Fair Play on Four Mile Creek, the route of the expedition is changed due to "Indian troubles." On August 8, Peale mentions William Jackson photographing "a beautiful lake which was at the foot of the mountain" at Rock Creek, and Peale comments that "Jackson disturbed us to take a picture." Jackson unfortunately may have lost some of these photographs three days later, when Peale notes that "one of Jackson's mules rolled down and broke a lot of his negatives, so he had to stay behind and take more."

A.C. Peale, Diary – Philadelphia, May 27 – Oct. 9, 1877 Begins with a description of Peale’s journey from Philadelphia to Cheyenne, Wyoming by train, with stops at Chicago, Council Bluffs, Iowa and Omaha Nebraska. It then continues with daily entries recording events at each of the 72 camps made by the expedition, which are also indexed at the back of the volume by date and mileage. ncludes reference to many Indian encounters. For example, on Tuesday June 7, 1877, one of the expedition members met a Shosoni woman who reported that there had been a fight between the whites and the Sioux. In addition, the expedition members saw many lodges of the Bannock along the Snake and Salt Rivers as well as other Indian camps along the ledges of Crow Creek, such as those above the ranch near Smith Fork where one of the boys spoke very good English as noted on June 29. Describes a number of encounters with Shoshoni, such as one in July when almost all of the Shosoni men asked for tobacco. On August 8, Peale reports that two teamsters were killed at the local agency by Bannocks. On the 23rd, he notes that in Montana Gibbon had had a fight with the Indians and lost 300 new guns, ammunition, artillery and commissary stores in Montana. Peale also makes note of other travelers that the expedition encounters along the way. For example, on Friday June 15, he sees written on the rocks above the bluff of the Green River the names of “emigrants” (presumable those on their way to California) from 1852 and 1854. He also meets two men on July 15 named Wilson Shippen and Harry Yount who had ascended the highest mountain in the area (unnamed) at 11,000 feet two days earlier, leaving their names on a monument at the summit. He also comments on numerous prospecting and fishing parties, as well as other expeditions being conducted in the area. Although Peale has limited contact with the outside world during this expedition, he does note the death of Brigham Young on August 29 and observes that the United State flag was held at half mast on September 2 for his funeral which took place that day. Other places mentioned in the journal include: Fremont’s Butte, Landers Road, McDough’s Pass, Oneida Saltworks; gold mines at Caribou below Blackfoot Peak, Fort Hall. Other documents tipped in the journal include an invitation from the School of Mines, Columbia College, for a sale of rocks by Alexis Julien, hand-dated June 25, 1877; form collection tags for samples; an admission ticket to the Excusion Ball, signed by John H.
