Image not available
- Description
- In this letter to "Mary", Kern reports that Frémont has moved on, leaving Kern in Taos, New Mexico. As Kern writes, "...he has broken faith with all of us.....he left us with no good wishes." However, he has been treated well in Taos since Frémont's departure, and is regaining the strength lost during the crossing of the mountains. Includes illustration by the author. One of his companions has attempted to retrieve some of the property they abandoned during their perilous journey through the mountains. Kern is hoping to soon begin traveling home by train. Signed "Ned." "Mary" may be Mary Kern Wolfe.
