But besides saddle-horses there are wagons, for wherever there is a prairie, wheels come early. One or two families not yet out of a pioneer state of existence go creaking pain- fully along in ox-carts ; and there are barefoot boys skur- rying afoot across fields to save distance. Everybody feels bound to go. The attraction of a crowd is proportioned to its greatness, like all other gravitation, and this one will 212 THE GRATSOXS drain the country dry of people. Scarcely any one stays at home,
...as you see. There are little children in the wagons and on the croups of the saddle-horses, while some supernumer- ary ones are held in place on the withers ; it is in this way that the babies get their first lessons in horsemanship. At half -past 10 o'clock the roads are beclouded with dust that drifts to leeward, turning the green blades of the corn-field to gray and grizzling the foliage of the trees. All along the road there is the sound of voices in many keys — but all with a touch of holiday buoyancy in them.
