Years passed, and bitter days came to Roosevelt,but though other friends failed him, the men of theBad Lands remained faithful. In 1912, four of them were delegates to the Pro-gressive Convention—Sylvane Ferris from NorthDakota, where he was president of a bank; JoeFerris, George Myers, and Merrifield from Mon-tana. Even Dutch Wannigan, living as a her-mit in the wilderness forty miles west of LakeMacDonald, became an ardent Progressive. Icant afford to go to Helena, he wrote in answer toan appeal from Merrifield to attend the State Pro-gressive Convention, but if you think therell be arow, Ill try to make it.
