A Brought down by wagon; when they came down to take produce we had secured they would bring provisions down that way. Q You were trading with the Navajos down there? A Not the whole amount. Q I say, that is what the purpose of the store was, to trade with the Indians. A yes sir. Q You got from the Indians wool and what else? A Sheep pelts and goat hides, blankets; that was the main thing we would buy. Q Why didn't you take them up to Bluff in a boat? A Well, you would have to tow it up, I should think; it was pretty swift in places. Q Well, it was easier to go out by team? A Oh, yes. Q How did the boat get back to Bluff, or did you build another one? |
