LETTER FROM W. A. LANelLLE
Mt. Hood Was an Easy Tramp for Him,
Compared to the ChiIcoot.

The following letter, undated, is print
ed in the Glacier today. 1t was sent
from Portland to Mt. Hood, to Mrs. Ian
gille, and by her sent to the Glacier. It
must have been written late in August,
and by this time the boys should be well
along towards Dawson City:
DEAR BOYS: We are still on the
trail, and will be for eight or ten days
yet. We are now camped twelve miles
from tide water, with all our stuff, ex-
cept one load, ten miles further on. To-
morrow we will move camp 20 within
ten or twelve miles of Lake Bennett, or
Shallow lake, and come back for more
stuff left beyond the summit about two
miles.
Talk about your trails! This is the
blankest trail any one ever took horses
over. 1t is a good forty miles from
water to water, and rocks mud and
roots to no end. We had to send the
horses in to be shod. The last trip we
lost seven shoes and the calks are off all
the others. 1t costs only $3.50 a shoe,
or So horse. Their backs are sore in
places, and they are getting little thin,
and if they come in tonight are all alive.
There are dozens of dead horses lying
along the trail; some killed going over
bluffs, some with broken legs, etc. We
have one son. of-a-gun of a hill yet to
cross, where several horses have been
killed. and if we make this one trip cafe
over that, the rest from the summit
down is fair going, and we will be able
to pack 200 pounds. So far $50 to 175
pounds have been load. Many pack
konly 100 pounds. From morning till
noon $50 horses loaded passed us here,
and there are hundreds behind who do
not reach us.
We have no boat yet. Our plan is to
get over first and see if we can't buy a
boat that has been ordered by some one
else who has not gotten over. The saw
mill man viii not hold them at all if
lNthey are not there at the time ordered
for. If the weather is anything like de-
cent, we can sell the horses for enough
TO pay for the boat, and more too. They
Aare selling now for 800. If VIC get $50
we will be in good luck. If we had had
ten horses we could have been in there
before this and sold our horses for good
money. L gave DIR. Siddall the little
brown mare from Hood River, and he
sold her for $3.50. 1 gave Leadbetter
Cooks roam and kept the rest. The
sore-eyed, rat-tailed appalucie Lew,
made so much fun of, will take 200
pounds and walk up or down anything /;
one of the best we have, but will kill
herself If we don't get away from the
cliff soon. The bob-tail from The Dallee
fell three times on the first hill, and we
thought he was a goner and left him
but next morning he went fine and is
as good as anybody's horse; in fact.
there Is not train on the trail that
will do better work than ours, but it
takes all of us to tend them.
We have had only two or three real
bad days, and we were out in them,

Held A HERO IN HER HRMS.
Aunt Abby Clark. who Nursed Gen.
Grant in the Old Days in Ohio.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: There is
a cheerful, active little old lady living at
Clermontville, two and one-half miles from
Point Pleasant. o., known to her friends
and neighbors rs Amt Abby Clark, who
says land she has the records to prove it,
that she nursed Gen. Grant till he was a
year old.
Mrs Clark was born in Trenton, N. j.,
March g. 1914. Her family name was Ire
ton. In 1920 her parents emigrated to Ohio
She well remembers the scenes of her child
hood, and takes pleasure in recalling incl
dents of the journey from her birthplace to
where her people landed and located.
"Well do remember the events OF that
journey into the wilds," said she recently.
I'VE pursued our way patiently but perse-
veringly. The mountains were difficult to
climb, the streams were dangerous to ford
the undertaking was hazardous, and the
journey long.
"We reached Pittsburg just one month
from the time of starting. We embarked
on fat boat and descended the Ohio We
were nearly four weeks reaching Point Pleas
ant, where our family disembarked. We
lived In Point Pleasant about four years.
I'm 1922 Gen. Grant was born. Tine
Ireton and Grant families became intimate.
Mrs. Grant requested my mother to let me
come and nurse the baby. She consented.
So at the age of eight 1 became the care
taker of the infant who was destined to fill
the world with his name and his fame II
was hard 10 part with my pet when his
parents moved away, and mourned his alb
sence with childish sorrow.

Sons of the Revolution.

The Sons of the Revolution in Pennsylvania
will celebrate the 18th Of June each year, that
being the anniversary of the date of the evacua-
ton of Philadelphia by the British troops.
This year their celebration consisted of q trip
to Bethlehem to an old Moravian Seminary,
which was used during the Revolutionary war
as a hospital for our wounded, sick. and dying
troops. The Sons have put a bronze tablet
in the walls, on which is incribed: In men,
DRY of the soldiers of the Continental army who
suffered and died in this building. Used as u
military hospital from December. 1776, to
April, 1777, and September, 1777, to April,
1778. This tablet is erected by the Pennsyl-
vania Society of the Sons of the Revolution.
A. d. 1897"
This tablet they unvailed with patriotic adj
dresses, flying of flags, and with song and re-
liRious service. Among the flags that the Sons
carried was a handsome silk one. an exact copy
of the one that the Moravian nuns at Bethle.
hem made for Count Pulaski's Legion. This
little Moravan church and seminary was one
of the early settlements in Pennsylvania. The
Moravians founded mission there in the year
174O, and during the Revolutionary war the
little place was crowded with the sick soldiers,
many of whom died and were buried there.
The National tribune. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1877-1917, 1897-07-01

"When the war waged its wide desolation
and threatened our land with disruption,
and the name of Grant became prominent
and popular, recognized in the great Cap
tain my babe of the bright Summer of my
joyous and juvenile life. / had faith in his
ability, hope in his fortune, and prayed for
his success with the fervency of a friend"
Aunt Abby has vivid recollection of her
early life. fertile mind, good command
of language and well-balanced faculties.
When they removed the Grant residence to
Columbus a committee called upon her and
offered her large sum of money to accom-
pany the building, but her children would
not hear to it, on account of her age and the
annoyance she would be subjected 10 through
the zeal of admirers and the questioning of
the curious.
She was married to W. r. Clark in 1883,
but is now widow. She raised five boys,
some of whom served under Grant. Mrs.
Clark has an excellent memory, there are
few gray hairs in her head, and she does not
use glasses.-W. r. G.
