Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Totem of Black Hawk: A Tale of Pioneer Days in Northwestern Illinois and the Black Hawk War "Whoa!" and, with a downward thrust of the handle of his long ox whip, Big Tom Clay brought the tired oxen to a welcomed halt. "Martha," and he turned a pair of shining eyes to the woman, who, with a baby in her arms, was seated on the front seat of the huge covered wagon that the weary oxen had been drawing, "Martha - Home!" and his eyes, sweeping the surrounding scene, returned quickly and a bit questioningly to the face of the woman. "Here´s the land, right from the hand of God, all waiting for us to make a home on it. I hope it looks as good to you as it does to me. It´s the pick of the whole Rock River Valley. Plenty of wood and water, and the soil good enough for a king and ready right now for the plow, without no grubbing out of trees or burning of brush. I reckon ´twon´t take us no time to make ourselves mighty comfortable here. It´s all that I pictured it, ain´t it? You ain´t none disappointed, be you?" and a look of affectionate anxiety came into the eyes of the big man.
