[The following is in terrible shape, but it’s better than nothing. This is all I can make out reliably]

DIED--
In this place, on the night of the 22d inst. ZALMON BEDIENT, late of New York City, aged 24 years.
The deceased had resided but a short time with us, yet the propriety of his deportment has been such as to awaken a general feeling of interest in his wellfare, and regret for his untimely death.

STOLEN.

On the night of the 10th inst. from near the plantation of John H. King, six horses and a colt belonging to some Miami Indians, on their way to Kaskaskin-- One, a dark bay stud with a large neck, and heavy main hanging on both sides of the neck, with a large white strip in his face-- his tail trimmed close -- one common sized bay horse, natural pacer-- with a square dock-- with a large bell on-- one hind foot and hoff white-- One a black Horse of common size, with a small white strip on his nose, and one hind and one fore foot white-- branded ‘N’ on the left thigh-- a small black Mare with a Horse Colt of the same color.-- Also a bay Mare of small size, no particular marks.
This is the second loss sustained by the same party.-- In June,or July last, seven Horses were stolen from the same encampment.-- One of these Horses, was a small Bay, branded in the Spanish mode on each flank and thigh-- a large bay Horse, with a white face and one white hind leg.-- Also a very handsome Chesnut Sorrel Mare-- if memory serves correctly, with a brand on one fore shoulder.-- A dark bay Stud Horse, with a star in the horehead-- One, a Sorrel Stud Colt, with a white face-- and white legs.
A Sorrel Mare, with white face and legs.--
Another Stud Colt, very dark sorrel with white face and legs.
Any person who will apprehend the thieves secure the horses and give information to Christmas Dashney at Fort Harrison, shall receive the reward of thirty DOLLARS and all reasonable charges paid-- the Horses remaining in pledge until the money is received.-- It is hoped that every white man will exert himself in bringing these rogues in Justice, as white men should never countenance others in setting such bad examples.
JOCCO---WEAW CHIEF.
