Myself and partner ate deer meat, grouse and fish until we got tired of it. Them ost exciting time I had was when I was boxed up in a stage and the team ran away at breakneck speed. I was the only passenger and when wo got to a little place near John Day and the driver got off the stage to take on mall the team started to run. I was helpless and all I could do was to sit as still as the rough road would permit and hang onto my seat and let the" team go their way. Luck Ily the frightened animals kept the road and no mishap overtook me. The team ran until John Day City was reached and then stopped of their own free will. Then I got out of the rig and thanked my lucky stars that I was there without ary broken limbs." Butte. Mont. Oct. 24.
