Abstract

"The first corral I ever slept in was the upper floor of a two story hotel about 50 x 30, with an aisle about six feet wide in the middle running the full length of the room the long way. Three foot aisles were running off at right angles with two rows of cross legged cots between the aisles and about three feet of space between the cots. The cots were about thirty inches or maybe a little more in width, and had a small pillow filled with most any old stuff-straw or carpenters shaving leading all other kinds--with colored cloth covers of some kind for a case. The bedding consisted of a calico sheet and a pair of gray blankets. All could be had for one dollar a night--no extra charge for company."
