Excerpt from Report of a Reconnaissance in the Ute Country: Made in the Year, 1874
Mr. Henry G. Prout, civil engineer, was placed in charge of the sur vey. My previous acquaintance with him convinced me that he would faithfully carry out his instructions, and his high idea of duty gave the confidence which that alone can give. I can only add that my choice has been one that I could not have regretted. Soon after returning, and while working up his report, he accepted a position as major of engineers in the army of the Khedive of Egypt. Though regretting to leave his work unfinished he felt that it would not be wise to refuse the offer, and I accepted his resignation. The report, as here furnished, is partly his own, and has been completed by assistant, formerly recorder, Donald W. Campbell and myself. Being almost entirely from notes taken by Mr. Pront, he has received the credit of the report itself.
