Text Appearing Before Image:
isted several weekson human flesh. We return now to our night near the banks of theGreen River. As it was my watch from midnight andwe were to roll out at daybreak, I retired early with afew words of farewell to those from whom we were toseparate, leaving others to enjoy the later hours, as part-ing friends are apt to do. It may be stated now thatsome of the boys later made a visit to Montana, but for atime this thread in our story is broken. It was in thegray light of the morning that each member of our partywas roused to his respective service. The teams wererushed in while the breakfast was being prepared, and atsunrise all were off for the still further West. The maintrain turned to the right, and our party to the left.After a mile or more of travel we halted upon a hilltop,before descending out of sight, and from the distance weheard the last shouts of good-bye from the other train,accompanied by waving of hats and handerchiefs, afterwhich our now very small party moved on alone.
Text Appearing After Image:
B CHAPTER XXII The Banditti of Hams Fork EFORE our little outfit rolled out from Ne-braska City, Captain Whitniore gave us manysuggestions concerning our route, and instruc-_ tions as to where long drives must be made alongwhich no water would be found. Among other words ofwarning he said, with some earnestness, Now, boys, if youtake the South Pass route keep a close watch when nearHams Fork. I lost some stock there and am confidentthat it was stolen, for I have learned that a gang of thievesand outlaws are located near that crossing. Now it hap-pened that early in the afternoon of the 4th of August,while riding in advance of our train in search of a suitableplace to camp for the night, I descended to a very large andrapidly flowing stream, thirty or forty feet in width andabout two feet in depth. I forded, and located a very sat-isfactory camping place near the west bank. Having sig-naled our approaching drivers to cross the little river andcamp at a point indicated, I rode upstream
