ed back on the long drive home one were willing little fellows <strong>and</strong> we<br />
of the horses was sick, <strong>and</strong> all tho have travelled many miles together,<br />
way home he lagged <strong>and</strong> was in <strong>and</strong> I have many times asked them<br />
pain, <strong>and</strong> when I unhitched him that to do a hard day's work <strong>and</strong> they<br />
nio-ht at home it was the last time, always gave a cheerful response.<br />
<strong>and</strong> while I had felt many times <strong>The</strong> hardest day's work as I re<br />
that I could be reconciled if they<br />
were dead, yet I did not care to<br />
have anyone with me when 1 came<br />
to the place where I found him<br />
dead. I had no mate for the other<br />
one, <strong>and</strong> so I traded him, <strong>and</strong> he<br />
met with harsher owners who must<br />
have met his rebelliousness with<br />
abuse, for the Jast time I saw him<br />
he was a crippled up old horse, <strong>and</strong> I<br />
felt more pity in my heart for him<br />
than for the one that had died before,<br />
<strong>and</strong> I wished he had died <strong>and</strong><br />
were lying with his mate rather than<br />
let him pass through the alnisc that<br />
must have been visited on him to<br />
make a horse of his calibre into a<br />
broken down old hack.<br />
Por years I drove a little team<br />
of Indian ponies that were called<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Sorrels," although thejr names<br />
were "Jim" <strong>and</strong> ''D<strong>and</strong>v.'' <strong>The</strong>v<br />

member was on a Saturday. We<br />
had l<strong>and</strong>ed home from Synod on<br />
Friday night. <strong>The</strong> trip home involved<br />
not only the miles of railroad<br />
travel, but a thirty-five mile<br />
trip by wagon. Coming in from<br />
this late Friday night, we found a<br />
large bunch of mail awaiting us,<br />
<strong>and</strong> one of the letters was from the<br />
Baptist missionary south of the<br />
mountains, telling us that one of<br />
our members was very sick <strong>and</strong><br />
there was little chance of her recovery.<br />
It meant a drive of over twenty^-five<br />
miles to her home, but Saturday<br />
morning early we started,<br />
<strong>and</strong> had only driven part of the way<br />
when we met an Indian who told us<br />
that this woman's husb<strong>and</strong> was dead.<br />
Wc were quite confused because the<br />
letter had plainly said that the woman<br />
was the siel< one, but we jiressed<br />
on toward the home. "When near<br />
the place, we met another Indian<br />
wlio told us that the woman was<br />
dead <strong>and</strong> that the man was very<br />
side, lying at a camp some twenty<br />
miles in another direction. We<br />
started across the prairies for this<br />
point, <strong>and</strong> when we had travelled a<br />
large part of the way, another Indian<br />
met us, saying that the man was<br />
dead <strong>and</strong> his body had been taken to<br />
the Baptist ilission for burial, but<br />
<strong>also</strong> told us that the little boy, the<br />
child of this couple, was dead.<br />
Again turning our team toward the<br />
Mission <strong>and</strong> making all haste, we<br />
Baptist Mission <strong>and</strong> found the force<br />
At that time we had a little camp<br />
there digging at a grave for the<br />
house at a preaching station we<br />
dead body which was lying in the<br />
called "Lime Creek" <strong>and</strong> we decided<br />
to spend the night there, <strong>and</strong> hold<br />
church. <strong>The</strong>y were almost exhausted,<br />
for the day was terribly hot, <strong>and</strong><br />

Avcre glad of any recruit that promised<br />
them help with the pick aud<br />
shovel. Aud so for an hour or two,<br />
all h<strong>and</strong>s worked up to the limit to<br />
get the grave finished <strong>and</strong> then the<br />
body was laid away. Some repairs<br />
were made ou the broken single-ire<br />
money. You decide, <strong>and</strong> I take your word.<br />
You can see that I couldn't possibly make such<br />
