purchased of Lem Shields, it is
a nice farm and the Doctor is hav-

thorough and substantial manner

from here we have a line view
of the 7 C., flats, those broad acres
there on the north belong to An-
tine Tescierand that on the south
belongs to John Tescier. All of
it is very7 fine farm land. That
line of green foliage marks the
course of the North Canadian river
as it, twists and bends along the
eastern border, separating the
Kickapoo from the Pottawatomie
and old Oklahoma, and that on
the east is the famous “Kickapoo”
lands lately opened up to civiliza-
tion.
John, did the Indians set out
thoso fine orchards there on that
gentle slope, how nice the trees
look,
No they are black jack orchards
planted and arranged by nature.
Here we are, this is what is
called Pleasant Hill school house.
M hy do they call it Pleasant
Hill?
Oh because it occupies such a
pleasant spot of ground, and then
the patrons of the school are all
pleasunt people, no gossip, never
quarrel, love each other, see?
This is Frank Seward’s farm-
my, but don’t those horses make
tho wheels spin?—this is W. H.
