Abstract
"26 - On our road at 6 this morning. Very warm too. Some mules are behind and the man has not caught us yet. Nine wagons are waiting; that cuts our train down. Noon. The teams came up with others, making forty wagons. No Indians as yet in the Valley. Some sage but considerable grass. Stock fed well on it. Butter 30 (cents), milk 5 (cents) per quart. Weat $1.20 per hundred, potatoes 2 (cents) per lb., hay $1.00 per cwt. This is the best looking valley we have seen in Idaho. Looking across the Payette Creek. Falk & Bros. have a store in this valley. We now number forty-four wagons and one hundred seventy-three people."
