settlement. 1'liis value, however,
was not real the minister found
later when he tried to dispose of it
and when he tinally found a man
who was willing to exc^aiifje a £1
meal ticket lor the vehicle, the
deal was soon closed, as the pre-
acher had no use for the huwiy
without a horse He was close
pressed for funds throughout the
year as a result of trying to sub-
sist on so meager a salary and at
one time drove into Waukomis
from Concord, near where Ames is
now loeatcd, where he was conduct-
ing a series of meetings, with no-
thing in his pocket hut a tew post-
age stamps and 10c in silver. The
Lord provided, however, and he
left the follow ing day without miss-
ing <t meal, rime and the years
between has softened the hardships
of the past ami he laughs as he
details them, a whole-souled jolly
man, growing old in years, but not
in spirit and his experience in those
scant years was no worse than
many others who braved the new
country to make a home tor them-
selves and family Many of those
pioneers are here vet and the years
that came after brought prosperity
