Wild Bill Hickok Tames the West, Stewart Holbrook I REMEMBER,' SV THE OLD TIMERS From Mrs. E. E. Brown, Hanni bal, N. Y.: I remember when Mid- dlesbo rough, Kentucky, did not have houses enough for its resi dents and I lived with my parents in a tent furnished by the State of Kentucky. We lived on what was then known as Queensbury Heights. My parents were employed by "The Middlesboro News” the town’s first newspaper. From Nancy Ingle, lendrick, Idaho: I remember when women horseback riders rode only “side saddles” with the right leg thrown over the saddle horn, and only the left in the stirrup, with the dress always covering the shoe top. Nev er must she ride astride—that was for men and boys only. From Mrs. G. M. Houck, Hast ings, Pa.: I remember when mother scrubbed the bare wooden floor of our kitchen, using home made lye soap/* and the floor was as white as a polished bone. From Lewis B. Avery, Clinton, Michigan: I remember in the 1870’s when some of us boys wore red top boots, and that we were always outgrowing them, so that before they were worn out, we had a whale of a time putting them on and off; and when my grandmother made tallow candles. 12 at a time with candle molds; when my mother was always afraid of kero sene lamps, because of the repu- tation they had for exploding as a result of the oil not being sufficient ly free of gasoline; when matches were scarce, and my grandfather one time borrowed a shovel full of coals to start a fire in our kitchen stove; and when sleigh bells were frequently used on horses in the winter time. I also remember my father’s old musket and his light green overcoat with cape to cover the shoulders, which ha used dur ing the Civil War.
