"When we crossed the plains in "61
It took me five months to get to Wal
la Walla from Iowa and while we had
no fights with the Indians there were
times when my hair would stand
straight up and there was a reason for
It."
Thus narrates O. V. Hartness of
Walla Walla who la here today visit
ing his sister, Mrs. John Knight and
hobknobblng with his comrade of
1864, James Crawford, retired harness
and saddle dealer who Is here from
his present home In Portland.
During the forenoon today Mr
Crawford brought his old time friend
to the East Oregonlan and Introduced
hliri as a man with whom he had
crossed the plains to Oregon In '61.
"You don't mean it; you are not old
enough to tell that sort of a story,"
Mr. Crawford was at once informed.
"Oh, yes I am," was the reply.
"We crossed the plains from Alba,
Towa to Oregon. We came through
here before there was any Pendle
ton. Mr. Hartness went over to Wal
la Walla and I went on to Portland
which was then a place of about 2500
people. From Portland I went to
Albany and later went Into busness
at Halsey. All told I was in business
in Oregon for 42 years'. My wife was
a native of western "Oregon, having
been born near Dallas Her father
taint across the plains In '49."
On the long trip across from Iowa
the immigrant party had many ex
periences. There were 40 people in
the party most of the time but some
dropped out. Only a few of the men
had guns and a dozen Indians could
have killed off the entire party. How
ever no attacks were made. In Col
orado though a stampede occurred
that was bad. Some of the stock grH
away and horses went as far back
east as 100 miles before they coulif
be caught.
"I had good, health on the trip but
we had strong appetites says Mr.
Hartness. Nothing in the way of grub
was ever wasted. I would eat a heavy
meal every time I sat at the table and
would then quit still hungry' for fear
the rest should think I was a hog."
Mr. Hartness has lived at Walla
Walla for many years and has been
farmer and groceryman. He has one
daughter with whom he now makes
his home when he is not traveling
around. He is to leave here Monday,
for Payette, Idaho. He wants to see
if any of the old bullwhacking trails
are still to be seen in that country.
He has not been there since- the Short
line was built.
