Death Valley in ’49

CHAPTER X
114/134

I had now looked pretty thoroughly, and found it to be pretty nearly a hundred miles long, and this was the only camp I had seen where water could be had.
When Mrs.Bennet was ready to show me what to do on the cloth harness, we took a seat under the wagon, the only shady place and began work.

The great mountain, I have spoken of as the snow mountain has since been known as Telescope Peak, reported to be 11,000 feet high.

It is in the range running north and south and has no other peak so high.

Mrs.
Bennett questioned me closely about the trip, and particularly if I had left anything out which I did not want her to know.

She said she saw her chance to ride was very slim, and she spoke particularly of the children, and that it was impossible for them to walk.
