I started with three or four gentlemen, carrying one of Mrs. *s children before me, leaving her with two other children to follow in charge of Mr. E At the 11 mile house they came up with our party, and soon after Mr. E took the child I had beea carrying from the arms of Mr Richardson, (Wells, Fargo & Co’s messenger) who had a few moments before relieved me of the “little responsibility.”— Mrs. then told Mr. E—— togo ahead with the children, and that Mr. B.

Icaught her in my arms, and would have saved her a heavy fall, had not her foot, unfortunately, clang in the stirrup.
