Account of a trip from Missouri to California
Manuscripts
Written to his father and mother by T.J. Ables, this manuscript is an account of Ables' overland journey from Boonville, Missouri to California by way of the Oregon Trail. He arrived with friends after a journey of five months and two days, having departed Boonville on May 7. He writes of his slavery discussions with locals while in Kansas, his travels through Nebraska, and how he inscribed his name on Independence Rock. In Utah, his party's cattle were driven off by hostile Indians, and Ables and his companions pursued the Indians, eventually recovering thirty-six head. This was the only direct encounter Ables had with the Indians, but he heard of many others, including one woman who survived a scalping. Typescript copy.
