If you deem the following items
worthy of place in your very in
teresting little paper, you are at
liberty to insert them
we'll remember the first time I
ever saw an Indian and the feel
ings that came over me. l could
not take my eyes away from him.
I met him in st. Louis. He was
large in stature, wrapped in his
blanket, his countenance grave and
seemed to be alone. | gazed and
called to mind the Book of Nor
mon, the history of his race, and
as 1 looked upon him my bosom
swelled with pity for him and his
people, and to tell the truth, from
that day to the present, 1 never see
Lamanite without having more
or less those feelings. This was
in 1888, while on my way to Far
West, Mo.
Leaving st. Louis and passing
up the Missouri river, our steamer
came near running into a deer that
was swimming the river. Every
body on board sailed out to see the
sight and we came 80 near to it
that one Of the passengers threw a
billet of wood at it. The poor
thing must have been dreadfully
frightened, but [ thought it made
poor Roadway to escape danger.
The country on both sides of the
river was alive with wild geese, and
sand-hill cranes, the latter was a
novel sight as they were the first l
had ever seen. Leaving the steam
boat at Richmond landing, L set
out across the country for Far
West. On my way, saw a fox
squirrel, and having gun with me,
| shot it.
This 1 did in order to examine
| it, for it was the first OF the kind l
had ever seen. l found it to be
larger than the common gray and
black squirrels of my country.

The door swung back its hinges to let the visitor
past.
'Motherl My dear old mother, it's BENNY come
! back at last!"
She felt his strong around her, his kiss on her
withered cheek,
And for one long, happy moment it seemed that she
] could not speak.
Then, with a sob that choked her, she whispered
''Oh, my boyl

And Benny cared for his mother all her remaining
days;
So one and all to all such sons, give your loudest
