On April 7th she came to the widower to prove her husband's will; and another match-making friend, Mr. Dow, "took occasion to say in her absence that she was one of the most Dutiful Wives in the World." A few days later the Judge made her a gift, "a Widow's book having writ her name in it."

When the Missourians came into Kansas the preceding March, many of them staked out a claim which they pretended to hold.

He hired this, with two broncos and a driver. Sewall and Dow took the boats down the river, while Roosevelt set out on a journey which took two days and a night, walking behind the wagon, and guarding the three men.

"Why, I think she's just starting for the Sayres'. Yes, there she goes now, walking down the path." "WILL you excuse me then, Mrs. Parsons, if I make a hurried exit?
