last Tuesday started on one of the
most remarkable journeys conceived
by man. He proposes to return to
Illinois over the "old Oregon TRAIL"

that civilization and the progress of
sixty years has not erased. He will
be accompanied by few friends and
the journey will be made by OK
team and the equipment much the
same as when years ago he came to
Washington. Speaking of the start,
the Puyallup Tribune says:
"At an early hour Tuesday morn
ing the little band was astir. Tents
were folded and carefully packed.
All the numerous accessories of
daily camp life were carefully ar
ranged in the most accessible places
in the Wagon, the thousand and one
final arrangements completed, the
goodbyes said, the word of COM
mand given and the long-talked-of
journey actually begun"
