Answer:
There are quite a number of units to measure speed and depending on how fast an object is going, some are more preferred than others.
The units are:
- Metres per second - this is on of the most common units and is regularly used by runners.
- Kilometres per hour - used by cars, buses and generally objects that move adequately fast.
- Miles per hour - this is a substitute to kilometers per hour for countries using the imperial system or miles instead of kilometers.
- Knots - Represent nautical miles and are a unit of speed mostly used to measure wind and water speed.
- Feet per second - Not as popular but used in countries that don't regularly use metres.
- Mach number - for really fast objects going faster than sound.

They planned on going to Fort Laramie but decided to stop at Fort Bernard instead (10 miles east of Fort Laramie) because they were warned that Indians were fighting ahead, the grazing for cattle was poor at Fort Laramie, and they could get wagon repairs at Fort Bernard.

Simile - "like a slackened drum"
Maybe even hyperbole, since it is an exaggeration.
