Locating a Homestead 



" Carried unanimously," said my comrade, 

 who, my readers will have discovered by now, 

 was a man of few words, though he quickly 

 added : " What's the next move ? " 



" Why," said I, "we must hit the trail the first 

 thing in the morning on our road to enter for 

 our respective quarter sections, lest we are fore- 

 stalled." 



And so we located our homesteads.
