10017. Sacramento Daily Union, Sacramento, California, Thursday Morning, July 6th, 1865. Indian Outrages in Arizona.

Sacramento Daily Union Sacramento , California Thursday Morning, July 6th, 1865 INDIAN OUTRAGES IN ARIZONA. The Arizona Prescott Miner of June 7th mentions numerous instances where white men had been killed, in the neighbor— hood of Prescott , by hostile Indians , and adds , as to the scene of the murders : This piece of road from Prescott to Date Creek, for the last two months, has been replete with danger, and is all owing to the non—arrival of the California troops , reported to have been under order for Arizona since January. It gives us pleasure to announce, however , that General Mason , immediately upon hearing Of the state of affairs , has stationed Company E, of the Fourth California Infantry, at Colonel Dobbins ranch, with orders to scout the country in every direction and to afford pro— tection to travelers over the road- The commanding officer at Fort Whipple also has put a small detachment in Skull Valley for the protection of the ran— chers there, and Lieutenant Barr is now out upon a well arranged scout. Prior to this every ranch had been deserted, but now the farmers are going back to their land with renewed energy.
