monotonous for all, but espe-
cially for guides and couriers. The
older ones perhaps welcome the
quiet and an opportunity to smoke
and swap experiences with their
comrades: but time hangs heavily
on the hands of the younger ones.
At least | found it so in the fall of
1856.
| had been riding special courier
for Colonel Henry Inman for some
time; but we were now in winter
quarters at Fort Harker. The old
Kansas Pacific was in process of
construction from the Missouri
River to Denver, and after leaving
Topeka it followed almost the iden-
teal line of Butterfeld's Overland
Despatch, although, little farther
from the Smoky Hill River and up
on the mesa it still in many places
touched and crossed the old trail.
Usually western Government
post is located in the middle of
reservation four miles square. In
side this limit there can be no
saloons or towns, unless the fort is
situated near one of the boundaries,
when they might be located just
over the line. At Fort Hayes it was
only half a mile east across Big Creek
to HAYES City. About the same
distance north and on the same
stream (which made sharp bend to
the right where it was crossed by the
railroad BRIDGE was located the now
long extinct town OF Rome.
Life at Hayes City looked more
attractive to me than at the post.

granted to me, and located in the
town, where | was soon appointed
deputy marshal. A town marshal

stating that | was very young to

Rome was founded by Buffalo Bill,
PONY Baxter, the Lullen brothers,
and Mat FLYNN. Near the railroad
bridge was the general outfitting
store of Lullen Bros, with Flynn as
manager. Adjoining was Pony
Baxter's hotel The rest of the
town consisted of blacksmith shop,
a saloon, and resorts common to
frontier places.
Adjoining the store but set farther
back from the street was the Lullen
residence. One of the brothers was
married and had a family of small
children. The walls of this house
were built entirely of prairie sod;
but the roof was shingled, and it was
ceiled inside with lumber. Here Mrs
Lullen dwelt with her little family,
