Editor Red Cloud Chief: , In looking over some old letters the other day, I came across one from my old friend, Henry Gilliam, which 1 re ceived nearly forty years ago, in which he mentioned some of his experiences, such as building shacks, fighting fires, etc , out on the Nebraska prairies iuite,u change for Henry from a luc- ill ttik nLll tntt ! him It t rl c?rktirt1 frrt Intaitlug from the stump In building a iiiuivv ywiuuu in uui u ik" ouuuuit tu iiome qui on me edge oi civilization.

Sometimes as I sit half dozing in my eisy chulr, I fad Into a reminiscent mood. Memory carries me back to my boyhood days, wuen I roamed over these hills with the Gilliam boys, or met with them In day school or Sun day sctiool. Jim and I wero in tLc same Suuday School class taught by his uncle, William Oates. We were a large class of boys and hud arrived at the smart Hgu when boys want 'to break awuy froui nil religious restraint but thiough the kindness, patience aud tact of our teucher we were held in check. I truly believe that the in fiuenco of such a grand christian char actor has shone out for that class of boys as a bcucou light in their voyage on life's troubled sea. Fifty years has changed that elu'-s of boys to old men, w doh suggests some Hues of an ilJ song 'A few more months, a few more years, It matters nut, it won't bo long.
