The sides were up, roofed and partly plastered when the Wakarusa war interrupted the work. On my return home on the conclusion of peace the cold was so severe that nothing could be done, and we had to shift the best we could until warmer weather.

Our cabin had 110 floor, but we were as well off in this particular as our neighbors. Chinks and fissures abounded in the roof and gables, as the green slabs with which they were covered were badly warped. Seven of us made up the family, five children, mostly small. At times, when the winds were bleakest, we actually went to bed as the only escape from freez. ing.

More than once we woke in the morning to find six inches of S110W in the cabin. To get up and make one's toilet under these circumstances was not a very comfortable performance. The wolf was never very far from the door 111 1855-56. NUMBER TEN. A very successful entertainment was given at No.
