I met many old friends in Cheyenne, among them R.S.
Van Tassell, Tim Dier, Major Talbot, Luke Morrin, Posey Wilson, and many others.

They constituted a pretty wild bunch, and kept me so busy that I had no time to think about Mrs.Cody's furniture.
On my return, when she asked us for it, I told her I couldn't bring it with me on the train, and that moreover there were no stores in Cheyenne where I could get furniture that would be good enough for her, so I had sent to Dewey & Stone at Omaha for what she needed.
I lost no time in getting over to the club, where I wrote to Dewey & Stone for all the articles my wife required.

In a week the furniture arrived at Fort McPherson station.

I got a couple of six-mule teams and went after it quick.

When it arrived at the house and was unpacked Mrs.
Cody was greatly delighted.
About this time General Emory was very much annoyed by petty offenses in the vicinity of the Post by civilians over whom he had no jurisdiction.
