He made but one request, that American interests in Oregon should not be abandoned until he should have had an opportunity to lead a large company of settlers across the mountains and into the country. This he promised to do, and relying upon this promise, President Tyler made the agree ment which his visitor urged. 1 1 The author is not unaware that an iconoclastic attempt has recently been made to relegate the entire story of Whitman s ride and mission to the realm of fable. Q 225 The America...n Advance The arrival of Dr. Whitman at Washington had been opportune. Even then the suggestion had been made by Great Britain that the long dispute should be settled by the establishment of a boundary line at the Columbia River, and there was a suspicion that this proposition for a settle ment of the controversy was not unfavourably regarded by the administration at Washington. The promise made by Whitman was faithfully kept. In the summer of 1843 a large body of men, women, and children, gathered from all parts of the country, but more especially from the northern States, set out from a point where now is the site of Kansas City for their long journey by caravan across plain and mountain into Oregon.
