Chris. Wilkinson, who left Custer about
the 18th of May, to better their condi-

They arrived on the evening of the 9th,
sun burned and tired by their travel
over the cactics and grease wood plain
Of Wyoming, but otherwise unschathed
by the torrid heat and alkali water.
They visited the towns of Gillette,
| Washakie, Lander. and Thermopolis.
At the latter place they tarried for about
a week and speak in the highest terms
of the waters of the springs at that place.
They describe Lander as a pretty town,
well built and prosperous, being mainly
supported by the sheep industry, being
the home of many of the owners of vast
herds which are seen all oyer the hills
Of that section. The town is well water.

verdict, that they saw no country in
their travels half so attractive as the
old Black Hills.
