Dear sir : The merry party composed of ,
R. B. Archibald , E. C. Quereau , C. II.
Quereau , H. M. Tyler , S. M. Cochran ,
L. W. McConnell and J. M. Trammell ,
left McCook for the gold fields in Wyom
ing ; all went well until they reached the
station , RockSpringson theU. P. R. R. ,
the end of the journey by rail , here they
were met by your correspondent who
gave them a welcome and hastily pro
ceeded to harness the team and hitch to
the National Park Wagon No. 2 ; a few
necessaries for the inner man were loaded
in the wagon and all aboard was said and
we headed for the mountains. 8 p. m.
We start for 14-mile ranch. All went well
with but few complaints about the long
miles and would we ever get there. 1:30
a. m. We are iu camp , the bed is spread
and all night caps are adjusted. 2
o'clock and all are asleep ; all's quiet for
the night. 5:30 a. m. and breakfast is
called by Ward , cook No. 1 , and also by
Trammell , cook No. 2. 6 a. m. We are
on the road again for Drums , 21 miles
distant ; we must make this point as this
is the nearest watering place. 1:30 p.m.
We are in camp at Drums for dinner. 2:30
p 111. We are on the road again for Pacific
Creek crossing , our next stop for the
night. Seven sage chickens have been
killed on our journey this afternoon.
7p.m. We are in camp for the night.
Cook No. 2 has prepared the chickens
and cooked them for supper. Supper
over and all take a smoke aud com
ment on the events of the day and the
mountains , which lay just to the north
of us. S p. m. The bed is spread on the
sand and all being tired have lain down
to rest for the night. Night caps are all
adjusted once more and all's well. Yes ,
the coyote echoed back the chorus "all's
well. " The sleepers were quiet and all
went well until 4 a. m. , when Mr. Tyler
arose from his would-be night's rest with
a complaint to enter at headquarters.
Cook No. 2 ( Trammell ) has disturbed
Johnny's ( Tyler's ) slumbers by his
"quiet" breathing , and Johnny was
heard to exclaim , "Charlie did yon
ever hear a fog horn ? Just listen , my !
my ! I'll go and get some sage brush
and build a fire , I can't sleep. " 5a.p1.
Breakfast was called by cook No. 2. 6
a. m. All \vas , loaded and on the road
again. The Sweet Water crossing is our
next camp for dinner ; all went well until
near 10 a. m. , when Mr. Tyler being
weary not having had a very good night
had fallen asleep andwashapDy for time
being. But one sudden joltof the wagon
awoke him , he began to look for his lit
tle gun. Boys , where's my gun ? he was
soon seen looking the back track , for it
was no joke by this time , for he bad
lostjres actually lost.his little gunapas- ;
sing team had found his little gun , and
he returns a happy man once more. 12
m. In camp on the Sweet Water. Archi-
bald.Tyler , Quereau and McConnell have
gone trout fishing ; we will bring back
some trout for dinner , boys , and away
they go. 1 p. m. The boys have returned
not having even a bite. Boys.we tell you
there are no trout in 'lhe Sweet Water.
Yet notwithstanding all this the Sweet
Water has been stocked and trout is
very plentiful. 2 p. m. On the road
again , our next stop is on the Dunbar
Meadows at National Park Hotelg miles
distant. 6 p. m. In camp at National
Park Hotel. No serious complaint except
the long miles ; oh , what long miles ! A
few days will be spent looking over the
compan3''s mines , and then we go to the
New Fork to hunt and fish. . More anon.
