Tombstone epitaph. (Tombstone, Ariz.) 1887-current, 1922-07-16


wonderful sights The climb was
very steer. but il was surely worth
the trouble We took our time. stop
ping to rest frequently. so we did
not reach the Reef Mine. 1000 feet
above the camp. till 1l:00. having
started about SIS.
We rested awhile and then ate
h.nch. Anyone who has hiked three
and a half miles UP steep mountains
will appreciate how much ones ap-
petite increases.
Having finished our repasr. we
rested while longer and then pro
ceeded to gather flowers and press
them. The air was fragrant with the
scent of blossoms and pine trees. and
really the surrounding country is
beautiful Some of our little party
went down TO the old mill. while 9th.
ers found spring further up. The
rain started while We were away
from the cabin of the Magne brothers
near the Reef, and We all got glorious
ly soaked" When we reached the
cabin We found one OF our party was
missing Miss McClelland got separ-
ated from the rest. and so search
ing party consisting OF Mr.. Horace
Magne. started out 10 look for her.
She got back while the party was
still out and said she had been under
an overhanging rock. and so dry as
could be. but finally thought her
mother would worry and so came thro
the rain 10 the cabin. We all had
thought we would have a good joke
on her getting lost, but | think the
joke was on us.
Finally the rain stopped and We
started down for camp. after taking
several pictures on the way, but as it
was cloudy / don't know how they
will turn out But alas. Just as we
got nicely started the rain started
again too. We had dried out after
the first time, bnt now it came again
But who cares. Not we. for it's all
in the game"
The earth and stones were wet, so
instead Of walking down in a very
dignified manner, some, at least, OF
US slid down, with considerable dam
age to our dignity.
When we reached camp We invited
cur guides TO dinner and consequently
splurged little in the way OF food
We're going UP 10 Mrs Todds now,
so Ill have to stop o yes. Mrs.
Todd and the Magnes have lent us
some blankets. as ours, being outside,
were wet. Also Mrs. Todd has iivit-
ed some of US TO sleep at her house.
June 2sth. All slept the sleep OF
the just" and incidently the tired
last night. In the morning the Camp
Fire Girls played games at Mrs.
Todd's. l only hope they had as
much fun as we did In the after
noon each girl wrote a list OF the
honors to be presented at Council
Fire on Friday evening. In .he even.
ing We played more games and then
came Taps.
June 29th. After breakfast we
started on our hike TO Ramsey. We
lad to stop at Todd's IN account Of
the rain, but as it did not last long
we soon went on. That is all Of US
but Hazel. She felt i'll so she stayed
with Mrs. Krebs and her place was
taken by Meta Totn. The trail to
Ramsey was not hard. nor was the
one to the box" We climbed thro
the latter and admired the scenery
and then started back Danced awhile
in the pavilion with each other. (No
outsiders allowed, tho some tried
hard enough to butt in"). then ate
lunch a little below.
After reaching home" and resting
up . bit. We gave a pantomine. with
the same audience as for our musi-
Gale. Instead Of. giving an account
o' IT. I'll just make . copy of the
n-ogram, and leave the rest TO the
t. ,eination. II was THE Wreck Of
