They stopped for visit with Elisha
Howard and his wife. old friends of
theirs. who lived in the village Of
Malone, which was in Franklin county.
New York There they traded their
oxen for team of horses. They
were large gray horses named Pete and
Colonel. The latter was fat and good

was food Pete was always looking
for food and perils. Colonel was the
near horse Now and then Samson

They proceeded at a better pace to

tarried again for a visit with Captain
Moody and Silas Wright, both of
whom had taught school in the town
of Vergennes.
They proceeded through DeKalb,
Richville and Gouverneur and Ant

had gone far out Of their way for a
look at these old friends of theirs.
Samson's diary tells how, at the top
of the long, steep hills he used to
cut a small tree by the roadside and
tie its butt TO the rear axle and hang
on to its branches while his wife
drove the team. This held their
Dad, making an effective brake.
