In February, 1883,1 made a perilous voyage to Fort Ben-ton by sleigh,—52 degrees below zero. Was lost all nightin the mountain pass; but we got there. Was royally en-tertained at Mr. Conrads, father of W. G. and Charlie. Thenew hotel let us use their dining room for service. Sub-sequently we were tendered the free use of a store buildingfrom a Jewish firm, the most generous help I ever receivedfrom anyone, Jew, Gentile, saint or sinner. God bless.
