I never heard of any circular letters purporting to have been prepared and circulated by Dr. Whitman to induce immigration to Oregon in 1843, until about 10 or 12 years after his death; and I don’t believe any such letter was ever circulated. Prior to coming to Oiegon I lived in S t Clair county, Mo., and in the region which furnished both the Waldo and Applegate companies com prising at least half ot the immigration of 1843, and was very int.mate with bo‘ h Daniel Waldo and Jease Applegate— lived with Applegate three years and lived within three miles of Waldo and I feci confident that if any such circular let ters had ever been issued by Whitmsn, Applegate or Waldo would have known of the fact, for they were two of the most intelligent and best informed men that ever came to Oregon, and they would have mentioned such letters in their efforts to gather their companies wit: $186.96 set over to widow for main tenance of minor rliildren.
