The threshers were coming at eight o'clock, and they hoped to get the engine and threshing-machine in order and be well under way at nine. Two neighbor women came over to help Mrs. Loper, and Elvira assisted Maggie in all her tasks.
The Loper supply of dishes was not sufficient, but there were two large basketfuls which had been borrowed from neighbors for the occasion, and, by having recourse to these, the tables were furnished. Chairs were brought from kitchen and parlor and every room in the house, but even then two were lacking.
These men were Charles S. Russell, of Prescott, Arizona, Edward R. Monett, of Goldfield, Nevada, and Albert Loper, of Louisiana, Missouri. Russell was thirty-one years of age, Monett twenty-three, and Loper thirty-eight years. The plan originated in the mind of Loper, in a mine in Cripple Creek, in 1899.
Well, they may have been trying it on a larger scale. Did you find out who doped the rope?" "There was a man who might have done it," said Joe, thinking of Harry Loper. "But I don't believe he did." "Is he still with the show?" "Yes. I'll tell you all the circumstances," which Joe did, mentioning Loper by name.
We spent a pleasant afternoon under a shaded arbour, listening to his reminiscences, and munching at the raisins. That evening Loper told us his story of their canyon expedition.
In 1907, three miners, Charles Russell, E. R. Monett, and Albert Loper, with three steel boats each sixteen feet long, left Green River, Utah, September 20th, to make the descent. Loper and one damaged boat were left at Hite near the mouth of Fremont river, while Russell and Monett proceeded.
Carfax, it was surmised, hoped to get Ham Logan under his influence through drink, so that he might use him in order to injure Joe, after having failed with Harry Loper. It developed, afterward, that the paper mills had, innocently enough, furnished the swindlers with the paper for the counterfeit tickets.
Here is its story: Loper Plans to Explore the Canyon. For ten years after Galloway's first trip was made, no one was found venturesome enough to risk the dangers of the Canyon journey until the man who built the Utah and his two companions resolved to "dare and do."
He was thinking of Bill Carfax, and of the fact that he had had to discharge the man because, while under the influence of liquor, he had insulted Helen. Then Bill had tried to get revenge on Joe. "I hope it doesn't turn out this way with Harry Loper," mused Joe, as he began climbing up a rope ladder that led to one of the high platforms.
Bert Mowrer's father inquired about his boy, then added cheerfully, "If he don't behave, lick him, lick him: that's what I tell every teacher." Farmer Loper and the engineer fell to discussing how many bushels of wheat to the acre the neighboring farms had produced, and how many this would probably produce, with various comments on the weather and the soil.
