took the rest of us i the family buggy. We overtook the n wagon near Green's Lake, part way up the mountain. George was perched upon a rock taking a last look at our native town. 1 weU remember how he cursed al1 nature 'black and blue' at the thought of going down to 'that iand of savages and rattlesnakes.' Henry W. told me years later that he would never forget the black look George gave him as they parted at Navajo Lake camp ground. We anived at Walt's Flat about the middle of the afternoon. Aunt Mary Ann and her two youngest girls [Violet and Maude] were ranching there. We remained there the rest of the day while the boys attended to some horseshoing and other fixing up of the outfit. Lehi and Jed Jones and their wives [Henrietta and Eva--Mary Ann's oldest daughters] came ffom their ranch at Miner's Peak to te11 us goodbye. Monday morning we were off to a good start, going by way of Three Creeks and Navajo Lake, at which point Henry W. and Joe Bryant bade us goodbye and turned back. We nooned just below Waiker's ranch east of Three Creeks. We al1 walked up to the house, which was some distance off the road, to teU our neighbors, of long years standing, goodbye. This was a difficult trip to make. Thomas tells of his parting with his good friend, Arch Walker, and how reluctant he was to leave. The story continues:
W i W. accompanied us to Lee's Feny on the Colorado River. We had a 3 114 Mitchell Wagon, drawn by four horses. Besides this, we had a saddle pony that 1 usually rode and a little chestnut sorrel mare we called 'Jimmy' which was very lazy. Henry had acquired him on a trade. He gave a little Indian pony, a two-wheeled-one-horse cart, a half-grown pig, a bushel of oats and fifty cents to Jirnrny Dunon for the 'nag.' Hence the name.
