of a ''substantial citizen," ,i'ist

"No we have the best country
right hero that I have struck yet.
They*have some advantages over
us here. A man can work so much
more there but, th * disadvantages
to my mind, more than counterbalance
the advantages. For example,
where I went there is no
water, no living wells, but the
people have to depend upon cisterns,
and as they have not had
\"!S
what is called a season in
years, it is sometimes pretty b;i
as I see it. They have to go
trog ponds and low places who
the water stands and haul it
the cisterns. And the land
not as rich as 1 expected to lii
it. A good part of it looked
nie about like our land hero,
saw some good land that won
make a bale to the acre, but
have some that will do that to
No, Texas is a very good count
but L prefer Lancaster."
