At Montague, by prearrangement I met Alden Sampson, club man of New York City; we traveled together to Etna Mills securing our seats on the box (see p. 141 ante) by engaging them in advance. It took two days at Etna Mills to round up everything, repair saddles, get the pack saddles together, secure the horses and so on. (see p. 140a ante.). |
