the statement is given for what it is
worth: Mr.. Howard Watkins. who
has just returned from a prospecting
tour near the head of Wise river.

Instead of chairs, there were three
legged stools, and for a. beadstead
there was a row of poles with one end
stuck in the crack of the logs. and the
other end laid on a tOrked stick,
driven into the ground. with some
boards laid across the Doles, and up
on these q heap of leaves covered
with skins and old petticnats.
The boy and girl were dirty, half
dressed and neglected.
Their mother was dead, and their
father was 4 rough hard man.
Once he left them for some time,
and when he came back he brought
with him q splendid bureau. a set of
chairs. a clio hes chest, bedding and

She, poor woman. had supposed

and her care, she soon made tue cab

and Nancy, were 5000 cleaner and

him to sch0M when there was Il

after he was dead:
