B o Q K $

THE OREGON TRAIL, by Francis Parkman. - In the spring of l846 Parkman decided to go out to the West to study the Indians so that he could have material to write about them. He hired a guide and cook named Harry Chatillon and Deslauriers. Also, Parkman's relative and friend, Quincy Adams Shaw, went With them.
 They had horses and mules as means of transportation. The horses were ridden and the mules pulled g. cart and were ridden also: After they started the horses got away several times and headed for home but were caught. Parkman took sick and was sick on and off during the entire expedition. They lived off of the country as they went along.
 : When they reached the Indian camp that they were looking for they stayed with the Indians until the first of August. Dur. ing that time they moved around in the Rocky mount t;tins and hunted. Then ,PArkman and his guide not Chatillon, but 8 new one picked up later--.Went back to join Chatillon and Shaw, who had gone exploring in other directions. Then they headed back toward the settlements. It was just after the Mexican War and they met soldiers along the way. .f t ~...
 Once when, they stopped at a trading post they. joined up with four men, one of whom was era zv and another lazy. Finally they reached the settlements:
