34. Tell about coming to your state in a covered wagon.
34. Mr. Munsee says he never will forget the monotony of crawling along day after day at a snail's pace with nothing to do but either ride or walk and keep up with the wagon. He walked nearly all the way across the plains. At one time the whole train stopped nearly four days to pick wild plums and service berries. Buffalo were very plentiful and they killed all they could use. One man wounded a large buffalo bull and he charged into the camp among the wagons and caused considerable excitement and hurt one ox but was killed before he did any more damage.
