Wild Mexican ponies head to Missouri auction sale
Hu mane Society Secretary Whitehead cites Agent Newcomb reporting five hundred or more wild Mexican ponies starving on the Costilla and Venejos range. About 115 have been rounded up for public sale. Missouri buyers in the San Luis Valley will ship the ponies west to resell at $1 to $10 each. This marks the last large wild horse herd in the West, with prior Utah herds culled by stockmen.

Unpublished 1864 Cavalry Company Roll Emerges From Columbia State
A partially published list from Captain Dogan Kay’s independent cavalry scouts, attached to the Second Regiment of South Carolina Volunteers under Kershaw’s Brigade, dates to 1864. Officers named include Captain Kay, Lieutenants Verner and Tribble, with a long roster of privates and noncommissioned members tied to Pendleton and the Upstate region. Columbia State notes the roll was not on file with the adjutant general, making the document a rare archival find.
