CoYered Wagon finds CatskiUs A Friendly Land

Mr. and Mrs. E m est Elfgren and six children left their East Killingly, Conn., farm on June 16 and are heading out west in home-made covered wagon. Motive power is furnished by two large white mules, “Jen” and “Kale.” The oldest son, Oscar, rides a lead mule “Jerry” to warn traffic. On steep hills “Jerry” helps pull the wagon.

The outfit passed through the northern part of Delaware county over the weekend and arrived in Oneonta Saturday, traveling route 23 from Stanford.

Besides Oscar, the children are Carl, 16; Sandra, 14; Roger, 11; Linda, 6, and Donna, 23 monthhs. The Elfgrens plan to travel all summer, until school time.

When Mrs. Elfgren was asked, “How come you're making this long trip in a covered wagon," she replied, “We’re looking for adventure. People all along the route are very friendly and kind, she continued. •

“They wave and holler ‘good luck,’ and many of them say they wish they could go along with us, and they- think we have a lot of courage to undertake such a long joumey.

“Yesterday a couple stopped us and gave us a loaf of delicious home-made bread, and last night a man stopped where we were camping and gave us two dozen eggs and a bottle of mosquito re ­pellent, and people have come out to the road with bags of canned goods for us. The people are woriderfully kind.

“As we were leaving P ratts- ville, Marvin Rodney euid BiU Den­ney of the Greendel Packing com­pany, stopped us and gave us a large bag of sliced meats. Then just a bit further down the road, two men, J. B. and Charles Mer- win, stopped us and the elder gentleman gave us two cards of thyme honey. And sure enough, as we were pulling into Grand Gorge, a Mr. and Mrs. Nate Bern­stein, who operate the Grand Gorge hotel, flagged us down, and brought us all refreshments.”

When the outfit pulled into Prattsville, the street was lined with curious people, and some 30 am ateur camiera fans snapped dozens of pictures.

Mr. Elfgren does most of the driving, wi th ' t he help of Oscar and Carl, then Sandra leads the brown mule, which is hitched in front when they come to a long hil^ as .was the case^ a t East W in^iam mountain.

At night Oscar and Carl sleep in a pup tent, and thevrest of the family in the wagon. This week­end will be the first time they have put new shoes on the mules. “A man told us there is a good blacksmith by the name of Otis Dunham in Davenport,” Mrs. Elf­gren said.
