whether to go the shorter distance
over the rough mountains or to go a
longer distance along the valley re-

to us by people we had met.

1T was great shock to see the
brave little fellow in such a terrible
plight, and when he told us his heart
rending story we were much discour-
aged, but decided that we dared not go
further and would retrace our journey
to our former camp. Those. miles
wearily Travelled we were as badly off
as ever, not wanting to go back and
afraid to go on.
I'VE were bemoaning our misfortune
when we caught sight of seven men
and six mules coming our way. We
raised a great shout of delight which
attracted their attention. The men met
us half way and showed great surprise
and joy.
These men proved to be deserters
from the United States army who had
the California gold fever. But we
hailed them with as much joy as If
they had been strictly on government
duty. The fact was they took us into
their good graces, we did exactly the
same thing, and we were in just the
hard-up positions to help each other
without any special prying into pre-
vious conditions
"These seven men had decided to
break away from camp under the cover
of the darkness of night. They planned
that each 'confiscate' a mule and sad
die and pack him with the necessary
equipment for the journey. But on
the very start one of the mules became
fractions and broke away from his
would-be rider. This left the man in
a sorry plight to pursue his journey,
and his comrades advised him to give
up the attempt.

1.-THE fellow, however. had the clear
grit and determination not to be
thrown off the track, and so when all
were in readiness to start up the six
mules, each mounted with one of his
comrades, he forcefully expressed him
self that he would not be left behind
unless behind a mule-grabbed one of
the mules by the tail and tenaciously
hung to it on the run to keep pace
with the animal.
His comrades tried to persuade him
to give up and return to camp, but
he kept on.
"Soon his companions decided to

ing positions with him as rider and
runner until meeting us at our camp.

Like a fairy story are the adventures
of Willard o. Wilder, now living in Los
Angeles.
Mr.. Wilder returned to California
two years ago, coming overland in all
the luxury of modern cars, but the
first trip he made here fifty EIGHT years
ago had enough thrills to make a
yellow back novel look tame by COM
parison.
On that first trip when California
was the famed EI Dorado Mr. Wilder
treked 1t overland with his wife and
young family. Between watching the
teams and the treacherous Indians, ne
was kept pretty busy. At one juncture
only a delay saved the entire party
from death, and as it was several were
murdered and two of the young chill"
dren taken captive. 1t was years later
that they found traces of one of the
young white girls who had been carried
away.
Although SO years of age Mr.. Wilder
is we'll preserved and has come back to
the golden west to spend the end Of
his days here. He resides with his son,
Frank w. Wilder and wife, at 661 Tu-

Mr. Wilder recalls ViVidly to memory
the hardships endured in his long and
dangerous journey over the plains. In
relating the experiences at his home,

went to the spot where the Oatman

up the bones of the victims as best
we could-for the prairie wolves had
eaten all the flesh. AS we had no
spade with which to dig the graves
we covered the bones with rocks, MAX

captivity about two years she died. 1t
was the Indian custom to cremate the
dead, but the sister interceded with the
chief and was allowed to dig a grave
and bury her loved one in a secluded
spot.
