' ' asked one of the gentlemen.
"I ain't your girl that I knows of, " she drawled, "but we sometimes keeps strangers, and I reckon you kin stay here if you like. " At that we entered the cabin, which consisted of a single room with a large fireplace at one end. The walls had been whitewashed, and from pegs here and there was suspended the family's extra wearing apparel. Two large beds occupied the sides of the room, with trundle beds beneath ; some splint- bottomed chairs and an old bureau comp...leted the furniture. The kitchen was in a "lean-to" at the back of the house.
The father came in presently, a tall, raw-boned man, with a face bronzed by exposure, and shook hands with us warmly and made us welcome. Soon the children, healthy and sunburned, came strag- gling in, and last the mother, she alas! the true pioneer wife, broken by many hardships. How many of these poor women have I already encoun- tered on this Western journey, prematurely old and broken from hard work and many privations!
