Pond just as he was helped by him. I know Mr. Pond would have liked to do the work on the dictionary which our father did, and he would have done it equally well, but his cir- cumstances at the time it was done were not so favorable to that kind of work. That made aU the difference in the world. I know how father dreamed dictionary and lived dictionary during the years he was working at it. Yet he never neglected anything for it. The wood was chopped, the water carried, the fields plowed for th...e In- dians just as if there never was to be any dictionary, — and all the while, in his faithful, persistent, brooding way, every hour was telling for its progress to comple- tion. . . . "I am just writing to Mrs. Pettijohn, 'Aunt Fanny.' I was her little girl for a year (1842), and Anna and I lived with her for three weeks in 1848, while our family went to Kaposia. She taught me to knit more than I knew before, — had me knit striped mittens, blue, red and yel- low. I loved them so, and hated the old white stocking leg which I had been at so long.
