Out of Old Nebraska . . .
Wisconsin Emigrant
Sends Back Stories
Life Along Oregon
Trail Told
One of the thousands of emi
grants going across Nebraska in
the spring otf 1853—just a cent
ury ago—was S. H. Taylor, who,
with his family, emigrated from
Watertown, Wise., to Oregon.
Like many another emigrant he
took time out along the way to
write letters back to his home
town paper—in his instance the
Watertown Chronicle. His letters
were later republished i n the
Quarterly of The Oregon Histor
ical society and they provide an
interesting glimpse of life along
the trail in Nebraska a century
ago.
The Taylors left Watertown in
the middle of March. May found
the family a t Council Bluffs,
ready to take off on the long jour
ney from the Missouri river to
Oregon. In a letter written from
Council Bluffs on May 24, Taylor
said: “Horse trains went out on
grain as early as April 18, but
companies of cattle did not go out
trusting to grass until about 10
days ago. It is considered barely
safe now to 'go out with horses
depending on grass solely”.
On June 4 Mr. Taylor wrote: .
"We are now 90 miles up the I
Platte on the Loup Fork, in
company with about 250 wag- |
ons, blocked up here, near what
was called a ferry before it was I
flooded, waiting for the water
to subside. |
“We are in the heart of the j
territory of the Pawnees, the [
most skillful thieves that can be; .
and some are paying dearly for (
their misfortune. In this neighor
hood they have stolen about 50 (
ftead of oxen, and every morning
we hear of from two to six oxen {
aeing run off. About 200 Pawne- *
-S came here three days ago and i
are lying here with us, but with \
what intention we know not. We k
are not afraid of our lives—but 1
we find them very annoying k
rhey will almost steal a horse I
'rom under his rider.”
Nebraska roads, then as now,
were the subject of much com
>laint. The spring of 1853 was a
rery wet one — “the wettest
mown.”
Mr. Taylor warned that those
who had been through in dry
seasons could have no idea of
the difficulties encountered in
trying to journey across Nebr
aska during wet weather.
“Even the road along the Platte,
except a few miles along the base
of the highlands, is horrible. Last
Wednesday we saw many wag- ,
ons set on the Platte bottoms and
I am sorry to say mine was one
of them.”
In dry weather, though, the
Platte valley roads, Mr. Taylor
opined, would be superb. In many
sections he thought they would
be superior even, to a plank road.
“There are places where 30
thousand wagons have, within
five years, passed along a track '
of not over seven feet in breadth,
snd there is no rut—no depress
ion of one inch below its original
level.”
Like most of his fellow emi
grants, Mr. Taylor took special
note of Chimney Rock, surely
one of the most outstanding I
landmarks along Ihe trail. Many
are the descriptions of Chim
ney Rock to be found in the
literature of the overland mi- !
gration of the American people.
Mr. Taylor’s follows: “Chimney
Bluff is a tunnel shaped mass of
clay, perhaps 170 feet high, of
really fine shape, and its center
being a shaft probably 60 feet
high and seemingly not more than
five feet in diameter. They are
both entirely naked of vegetation,
and the rains are slowly washing
them down.” J
