<strong>Told</strong> <strong>by</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Pioneers</strong><br />

FOREWORD<br />

'rhe contents <strong>of</strong> this book comes to <strong>the</strong> reader through <strong>the</strong> development,<br />

<strong>by</strong> <strong>the</strong> editor and publisher, <strong>of</strong> stories related mainly <strong>by</strong> pioneers<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> second generation.<br />

Being volume II, it reaches far<strong>the</strong>r back into <strong>the</strong> realm <strong>of</strong> pioneer<br />

lore than volume number I. While it has been <strong>the</strong> editor's aim to continue<br />

<strong>the</strong> story intact as given <strong>by</strong> <strong>the</strong> relator, it has sometimes seemed<br />

expedient to modify sentences and paragraphs to render each story<br />

complete in itself.<br />

The utmost care has been taken, however, to preserve each story in<br />

<strong>the</strong> original style and mode <strong>of</strong> expression, thus giving a clear insight<br />

into <strong>the</strong> pioneer history <strong>of</strong> this great West The Old Oregon Country.<br />
