excellence of the perfimance. The

and doubtless a record crowd in
dialing many Medfoffi people will
be on handlo enjoy the presentation.
'"3 had five uncles in the Civil ;
war three in the .Union army and'
two in the Confederate. Some ofj
Jtfise James,' crowd burned our :
house in .Missouri and we started !
across the plains. I remember '
Uhat day well. My baby sister',
wits sleeping in a feather. bed and
my cousin picked up the tick with !
the baby in it and van from the;
house. When she put it down on!
on the ground, they sbouted for '
her to move it further away or,
they'd burn the baby up xoo."
"J met one of the Jamea hoys'!
cousinB after that. I knew him
too. He was ns good a fiddler as,
I ever heard. And I've heard 'o-s
of fiddlin'." Mr. Kdsall laughed!
and a new set of wrinkles formed ;
on his high forehead, which con
tinues on bock to the line of fringe;
about his head.
"That man could play and call.
Say, you vould hear him train here
to the Nat. P.ul he got toq many
drinks one day and told some
stories whifch made H clear who
he was. He went under two namee?
during the time 1 knew him and
neither of them was right. He lift
ed his long arm out before him.;
"i'd bet that on htm being one
of the Dalton boys, lie admitted
he was a cousin of the James
brothers, by gum."
Turning to t'he memories of the
long journey west, Mr, Edsall said:
"The fitvt Indians we saw, we saw
plenty, two thousand wlmmlng to
ward tt through the Piatt river.
There were squaws with their
babies strapped on their backs,
swimming along with the bucks.
X o, ( wasn't sea red ; some h o w I
always felt safe when my folks
were around. Ten of them came
over to our wagons and ate with
us. My father knew the chief welt.
It wa hi firth trip a crew,
"One. night 60 Pawnee warriors
drove up to our train just at camp
time. There were only seven men
in our crowd and one hoy who
could handle a rifle. The Indians
wanted sugar so my father divided
ours with them. Then one Indian
wanted some more nnd my father
said we had to have it for the sick.
the chief sftot at my
nine
cattle and
fa t her.
"T here w re j nst .i bout
wagons in vr train then, so we ;
hurried on to meet ihe train ahead !
of us, and came on through with
"J wagons. ;
Speaking of the hardships of thev
plains, Mr. KdsaJI said, "We often !
had to haul water for ourselves'
for several days. But the stock ,
always got along. Th& last four
or five mile. before a water hole.'
we didn't need to use any "whips.)
The horses and oxen could mel!
the water and, my goodness alive,)
they didn't need any coaKing; to
go." J
Turning to thoughts neatvif
home, Mr. Kdsali continued: tf
know this country well. I ran aj
threshing machine through here j
for fit years. And I can ttlt do j
a fair day's wnrK. The first time,
I went through hero Medford wa

helped build the Southern -Pacific (

plowing from Bea! lane to Talent.

plains." Ke placed a, little black
hat with a Hat crown, which tailed
to roh the impression of great
height from h statuYe, upon his
head and fttartea. toward the door.
" may have to wallt home. But
I think I can catch n ride. I walk

long out at that Matru'd siting, hut

a he continued down the hall.
