It led to the Ross Fork of the Snake River, thence west to his toric Fort Hall, a Hudson’s Bay trading post near the junction of the Snake and Port Neuf Rivers. Its location was near the pres ent Pocatello. Fort Hall was a busy and important post on the Oregon Trail. It was built in 1834 by Nathaniel Wyeth, an American trader from Boston, and named for Henry Hall, the oldest mem ber of the Boston company. Cottonwood logs,' set on end, rose fifteen feet from the ground. The enclosure was 80 feet square and bastions at diagonal corners commanded all approaches to the fort. It was completed August 4, 1834, and the Amercian flag was raised the following <iay. Captain Joseph Thing was in command with a garrison of twelve men. Wyeth soon found that he could not compete with the Hudson's Bay Company, so he sold out to the British in 1837. The fort was rebuilt of sun- dried bricks (adobe), and increas ed to one hundred feet square in size. In a setting of green mead ows with gray hills in the back ground. the fort presented a wel come sight. Past it ran two rivers, the Port Neuf and the Snake, their banks bordered with cotton wood and willow. Captain Richard (Johnnie) Grant was in charge from 1842 to 1851, where he en joyed great popularity among mountain men and emigrants alike. Auto Mechanics has been added | Ed.
