Their names were Lewis and Clark. There were forty-five men in the party. They were gone two years and four months. For most of that time they did not see any white men but their own party. They did not hear a word from home for more than two years. They got their food mostly by hunting. They killed a great many buf-fa-loes and elks and deer. They also shot wild geese and other large birds.
Mar-quette did not know that any white man had ever seen any part of the Mis-sis-sip-pi. The two little canoes now turned their bows down the river. Some-times they saw great herds of buf-fa-loes. Some of these came to the bank of the river to look at the men in the canoes. They had long, shaggy manes, which hung down over their eyes. For two weeks the trav-el-ers paddled down the river.
The first white people that came to this country hardly knew how to get their living here. They did not know what would grow best in this country. Many of the white people learned to hunt. All the land was covered with trees. In the woods were many animals whose flesh was good to eat. There were deer, and bears, and great shaggy buf-fa-loes. There were rabbits and squirrels.
