The season has been very wet in Dakota Territory and William Wingate Sewall thinks he will enjoy the winter more than the summer. He should not have to work very hard and there are plenty of deer to hunt. There is land available but Sewall is not sure if the average man can make it profitable. He is generally pleased with Fallback, his horse, though they have had their differences. Sewall’s employer, Theodore Roosevelt, is a “very fair fellow.”
