and three children. They took up their
abode in an emigrant wagon on the border
of the river. about two months ago, and
changed it according to the rise and fall OF
the water They have made no acquaint-
anccs, spoken to no one; and appear TO live
entirely excluded from intercourse os any
kind with the rest of humanity.
