Hey Danny. I'm not sure I'm following what you are saying. See my other post of my version of Phillips' route. I believe the battle was at the Muddy/Middle Boggy crossing about 5 miles southwest of Allen about where State Hwy 1 crosses Muddy Boggy. This is about 12 miles or so north of Stonewall. It seems Camp Kagi is 21 miles from the battlefield. So if the battlefield is on Middle/Muddy Boggy and Camp Kagi is on South/Clear Boggy and they are 21 miles apart, either they didn't march in a straight line or they moved southeast down Clear Boggy to some point 21 miles away. I don't think they moved in the direction of Ft Arbuckle but instead their target was Ft Washita. However, their scouts in all directions could have taken detachments west to Old Fort Arbuckle or down the Ft Smith - Ft Arbuckle road for some distance.
