There are 488 pages in volume 1 and volume 2 is from 489 to 996 John C. Fremont hired him as a guide and hunter for his 1842 exploration expedition to the Wind River Mountains in Wyoming. Carson was also Fremont's guide and hunter in Fremont's 1842 expedition to the Wind River Mountains in Wyoming. Carson was also Fr�mont's guide on his second expedition (1843-1844), to California and Oregon; he again scouted and guided for him on his controversial 1845-1846 California expedition, which ended in filibustering and a court-martial for the so-called Pathfinder. Postage Kit Carson was considered a hero and President James K. Polk appointed him a lieutenant in the mounted rifles regiment. Kit Carson was becoming famous because Fremont praised him in his government reports. At one time Carson was ordered by Fremont to take no prisoners and shot and killed three noncombatant Californios at San Rafael.
