Yesterdays’ answer:
B Rough around the edges
From
the life of Patience Loader Rozsa Archer:
We traveled on for some few miles. Then we came to the Sweet Water.
There we had to cross. We thought we would have to wade the water as the cattle
had been crossing with the wagons and with the tents and what little flour we had
and had broken the ice so we could not go over on the ice. But there was three
brave men there in the water packing the women and children over on their
backs. Names William Kimble, Ephraim Hanks, and I think the other was James
Ferguson. Those poor brethren was in the water nearly all day. We wanted to thank
them but they would not listen to us. My dear Mother felt in her heart to bless
them for their kindness. She said God bless you for taking me over this water
and in such an awful rough way. They said oh d - - - that I don’t’ want any of
that. You are welcome. We have come to help you. Mother turned to me saying
what do think of that man. He is a rough fellow. I told her that is Brother
William Kimble. I am told they are all good men but I daresay that they are all
rather rough in there manners. But we found that they all had kind good hearts.
This poor Brother Kimble stayed so long in the water that he had to be taken
out and packed to camp and he was a long time before he recovered as he was
chilled through and in after life he was always afflicted with rheumatism.
