This day I discovered how the Indians keep their horses during
the winter. In
the day-time they are permitted to run out and gather what
they can; and at night
are brought into the lodges, with the natives
themselves, and fed upon cottonwood
branches; and in this way are kept in
tolerable case.—Gass (p.
