Official Report of Celenet Shafter on raid into Mexico
Shafter's report details the September raid by Lt Bullis and detachments totaling ninety one men from the Sixth and Tenth Cavalry and Seminole scouts. They crossed the Rio Grande toward Lipan Indians, encountered Mexican guides, captured four squaws and one boy with horses and mules, and pursued a Mexican cavalry party before returning. The action occurred near Remolino and the San Diego, with American forces avoiding direct engagement as Mexican numbers were small. Horses and mules seized were largely American stock from Fort Clark and earlier losses.
