That 's what brought my father, Jame s Hartley , and his parents out of Tennessee and what brought my mo ther, Sally Teter and her family out of Missouri. Both f a~ili es arrived ~t Fl ora Vi sta , New Mexico , about the same time . When mother and dad married , my mother alr eady had three daughters from a prev1.ous marriage. Her first husband had died . My half-si st~rs were Bell e, Dora and Hazel. The year before my parent ' s marriage , Dad had taken a ranch on the La Pl ata River northwest of Farmington , N.M. That's where I and my lit tle brother, Teddy , were born. Dad called his place 11 The Greenhorn Ranch" because he said all the settlers in that part of the valley including himself we re greenhorns . We had dry land about 2½miles eas t of the river . The men decided to build an irrigation ditch. The contour of the land required a ditch 7 ~iles long which the ~en dug -by hand -with picks and shovels . With no one to survey it they had to eyeball and estimate the grade the best they could . They had problems with it, but it worked when there was enough water. Teddy died of the whooping cough when he was two years old." · "Dad rais ed corn and alfalfa and a big garden. Mother canned all the food she could. I suppose we would have starved wi thout the garden. I learned to milk the cow and feed the pigs.and chickens. It was fun to milk. When I first l earned I took a 5 lb. lard can, milked it full and thought I had done enough. Mother soon explained i f I started to milk I had to finish or I ' d ruin the cow. My folks were v e ry :poor, but that wasn ' t unusual . There were □any poor people then. We drove a team and wagon to Farmington, which was about 3 blocks long or to Aztec, the county seat , which wasn ' t much bigger. When Dad finally could buy a ' . 'bugg~, , we t hough t we had soma t hing . We ware so thrilled . i i 11 At Christmas time my par ents didn 1 t h ave much money to spend, but I always got at least one nice toy and something t o wear . You could buy a beautiful doll for a dollar . I attended the Williams School until -iOth grade. My dad served as school director with Joe Glai s ter and John Smith for years and years. He helped rai"se the money to buy :t:1aterials and build the school . Frequently, we had dances to earn money for school expenses. The old school is still there. It's now used as a fir e station for the communi ty. 11 " In 1911 every bridge was washed off the La Plata River . One or two persons drowned. Somebody a f ew years ago built a house close to the mouth of the river near Far mington . I don't wish them any harm, but someday that house is going to be washed away , 11 ''World War I came and went while we were still on the farm. We didn't know a lot about the war except what we read in the Aztec paper. It seemed very far away . 11 "I met William Hill about the time he came home from the war. He had a farm on the La Plata about 10 miles north of my Dad ' s place. We were marri ed in July of 1926. I had one daughter, Frances , fr om an earlier marriage . Frances learned to love Willia m and he loved her. We farmed the , plaae on · the LaPlat a and did well. Both of us l oved to go . I' m still a gadfly . We travelled every year to Arizona, or California or Oregon. We saw all the sights. William liked to gamble. Sometimes we'd stop at Reno . He was good at those games. If he sta rted to los e , he'd walk away for a day or so. If he started to win, he stuck with it and sometimes made a lot of money. Of course it didn't cost much to tra vel then. Gas was about 15¢ a gallon. When we were first married we had a Model T Roadster. We got to Portland, )regon, �o,,u,t/£/ 1171 ·~ just as they were having a gas wa.r. We filled u{f with 10¢ gas and took off down the street. A little further down the road we saw a place offering 9¢ gas. William said, 'I have a notion to go to the edge of town and dump this fuel and fill up with 9¢ gas, 1 but he didn't. We didn't have any children of our own, but we had a wonderful life on the farm and on our trips •. · By 1950 William was not able to work any more. He suffered from emphysema caused by the poison gas he breathed during the war. The next 16 years he was in and .out of the veterans hospital until he died in 1966. 11 11 1 moved to Ignacio to be near my daughter and son-in-law, Frances and Dick Baird, and their children. Three of my grandchildren also live in Ignacio, Janneth King, and her brothers Clifford and Daleo Richard Baird lives in Arizona and Bill is in California. 11 11 The road across the hills to Aztec was hardly a road when I was a little girl, but I lived to go then just as much as I love to go now 11 °'•. r, Things in this country have changed a lot in the last 50 years. When I was a little girl, the road over the hills to AztP.(! was hardly a road, but I loved to ~go then just as I love to go now when travel is· easy. 11 Shel by Smith· Mr. & Mrs. Rex Richmond enjoyed a visit with Vivians sister Hr. & Mrs. Otis Price from Carlsbad, New Me~ico and a nephew Bill Mc:t>finn from Grants, New Mexico.

In those years there was enough r ain for gar~ens and crops on the dry lands. Since he brought no l ive stock wi.t h hir:1, Dad started his flock from nothing by herding sheep on shares and by herding others for pa'.'.r. 11 11 ,n,tfe attended the Harvey School when we could. So:ne of my h alf-brothers and sisters attended for several years and learned :nglish well. There were six of them (Crestino, Pedro, Faustine, Camilla, Gregorita and Andrea). I only went to sc.i:1001 two winters which was not enough to learn English very w~ll. 11 ll There were no i u ri_11ing st:rea!!ls in that country, but there. ·were springs and. we could dig a h:)le in the sandy botto::i of an -.!:.!'royo and it would sor:,1 fi l l wi th water .

Then we piled shocks of wheat or the d~y bushes of Pinto beans on the ' era ' and again r an the goats over it. After removing the coa rse straw and ste~s, we winnowed the remaining grain or beans i n the wind to r'3move the fine leaves a nd ch2ff.

The ne~t day when the men went out they found t he water ha::1. risen so r:uch higher that all of their salvaged lu:::ber was washed a'1:ay again. 11 11 Aft er I grew up, GY step-oother , }:a.nu eli ta, died and Dad r.:oved back to Antoni to .

I was born June 6, 1907 in t he Pine valley across the river froffi Ignacio, probably in a teepee. The Indians often moved into their teepees during the warm months , partly because t hey were easy to move when they got restless and partly because they reminded them of an earlier time. My father, Henry Shoshone, Sr . , was a tribal policeman. Death came early and unexpectedly for hhi~ . He was sent to patrol a fair in DiJrango and in the course of his duty he chased some unrul:r drunks, stepped in a hole while running and broke his leg. Infection set in. The leg was amputated and he died from loss of blood. A few nonth later my mother, Laura, died also. I do not know the cause of her death. 11 11 I was placed in the Indian Schnol Dormitory north of Ignacio. Since I was so young, I was placed with the cook, Mrs. Simpson, (.Tesse Hott's mother) who had an anartment in the dorm. Later she married and became 1{rs. Stauffer. She was like a mother to me and took a special interest in me until I left the Ignacio School at the age of 11. The dormitory I lived in is now the boys dorm. At that time one end was for boys and the other for girls. Some of the other original buildings are now gone and the water tower which gave us so much fun is now gone. We were not ~upposed to climb it ; so , of course, we did. I tried it once, but got so scared half way up, I cane back do~,\rn. None of us went home for the holidays . We stayed at school all year until summer vacation. I spent summers with my sis t er l·iay. 11 11 At the e.ge cf 11 I was sent to school at Towaoc for a year. Then I went to Santa Fe where I finished 8th e:rade. I could have .eone to Albuquerque to finish high School, but instead I took a job working in a Sanitarium at Dulce. Later I worked for a Presbyterian missionary in t he Dulce a rea . When he mov ed to Al buquerque, I c awe bac k to Ignacio . Erne st Burch went to s chool wi t h rae , but I never paid any a ttention t o him until I move d back t o I gnac io . He built dams and irr igation ditches f or the Pine River Pro jec t . He had boug ht an old Ford c a r with a crank s tar t . 2:t was f un t o go on da t e s i n a car . We got married in 1927. At f i rs t we lived with my s i ste r J ane Bir d in an old adobe h ouse l ocated near the present site of the Tribal Maintenance Shop. Soon we moved into a 2 room frame house with a livingroom-kitchen and one bedroom. It had a wood-burning cookstove and no other improvements. Later we got Louie Val-dez to build us a l+ room adobe house. It still stands s outh of Graves Gunn's house. We had running water in a spring down near the river bank. We fenced the spring to keep dogs and cows from spoiling the clean water. Fortunately I knew how to ride a horse, because Ernest needed me to help round up his cattle. It was ~ostly open range, so the cows wandered in all directions. Ernest kept both cattle and sheep f~r many years.After several years we built a house uo on the hill east of Ignacio. It was a special house since it was our first one with modern pluobing and lights." 11 My husband was a singer and dancer in the old tradition of the tribe. He was often the first one up the valley to sing and play the drum while the Sun Dancers held up their arms to pray. He knew the Bear Dance scngs and often helped with that. All the Indian ways and ceremonials were very important to him. He followed the Indian ways until he died in 1977. 11 �~ I 91 'l 11 We had 10 children in all. The ones still l iving are Homer, Ernes tine, LaVarra~ Nova Dene, Robert, Dennis and Cynthia. Franklin 11 died when he was 1~. Two others died when they were babies. ' l We moved to Ignacio i n April of 1977 . Erne s t died in November. Ais funeral was at Sacred Heart Church in Durango where we were married 50 years befor e . wnen I think about the days when we were young, I remember how active we were. We baked our .own bread a nd made quil ts •. If we needed ·something from ·the s t o~e 1 we walked to town with packs on our backs to carry the canned goods. l think we have gotten too lazy." 11 The imuortant thing for me today is to go to church. I like to go t wice on Sunday. I enjoy i t and I enjoy going to Worker's Conference i n other towns . I try to get my Indian friends to go to church regularly. 11 I t helps me and I think i t would hel p them, too. 11 Shelby Smith Ada Shepherd, one time Ignacio primary teacher, is now making her . h ome in the Good Samaritan Center in Loveland, Colorado.

The night be~ore Christmas Eve all of us little children, Frances Buck, Joe Weaver, myself and others sneaked out of our rooms to peek at the big girls assigned to wrap the presents and fill the stockings. The next night there weuld be a program with singing of carols. Then, when we heard bells jingi ing in the hall we got so exc.i ted we could not sit still, becaus,~ we ~ w who was coming . Santa ran into the hall with his pack t ull • • pr esents . Every year the girls got a doll and the boy~ got a ball or some other toy.11 Eva Cook nr grew up in Norwood near London, England. Sometimes on Christmas morning we receive~ an apple and nuts, sometimes not. Toys were OUL of the question. Usually we had Christmas pudding and a good dinner. We went caroling, sometimes in bitterly cold. weather. So~e of the people opened their door~ to listen and dropped pennj_es into our ha ts. 11 Gertrude Dunn .~ \;;,, ~\.<:.. "My family was moving to south._. Texa,s in De.c ember . The day bef ore Christmas ·we camped near the~ tockyartls of a small town . Dad went sh6pping a nd returned with'"toys f e r the youngest chil dren a1:d with sweatE!:-rs for my two older -Sisters and myself. I was at the age when I was almost too old f or toys, but wished I wern 1 t. · The sweaters were very beautiful, bu£ Dad could sense I was a little disappointed. A while later he returned with, a doll for me. 11 Beulah Miller "I was the youngest child in my family growing up on the ranch east of Ignacio. Santa always came to our house the night before Christmas while I was asleep~ I woke up before dawn, got my parents up and ran in to the fireplace to see what was in my stocking, then to the tree for a present. My parents knew I was crazy about trains. My favorite present was a wind-up train. Another time I got a little steam engine with a lead flywheel which burned alcohol. It worked great until one day I put in too much alcohol ·and melted the flywheel right off of it. 11 Emmet Hott "I can still hear my Dad saying ; 1 Go to bed children; so Santa Claus can come.• Then the next morning he came into our room and said,'l~ke up Children. I think Santa Claus has been here.' We got up right then and ran in to the tree and tore into the presents.rt ·Euterpe Taylor �r 'Dad always sent us to bed real early on Christmas Eve so Sa.nta. could come . The next morning we found apples and -oranges, but no presents. But we didn't know the difference, so·we were happy with what got. ' 1 E~a Gallegos ,e - - -- -- - ---- ~ ,;I was one of 10 children growing up on a ranch near Rogers, Arkans!as. Every year my parents bought each of us a new suit of clothe:s and one or two special toys for Christmas. With that many peopl~ in a house it was impossible to hide the toys en the pla~e, so my Dad left them at the neighbors very secretively until Christmas Eve. Some years he was so quiet about it we wondered whether we were going to get anything. One morning when I woke up very early to check the Christmas tree, I found the decorations afire. Fortunately we were able to wake everyone up and put out the fire before it destroyed the house. 11 Paul Lunsford 1 .was a very 'bad girl one year. !1y father, who 01'med. a book and stationery store in Durango, brought a catalog to my !:'!.other who picked the toys to order for us children. I looked in the catalog to see what mother had ordered for us. There were her neat check:narks beside certain items. Then a brilliant a.,,~d naughty idea came to ~e. I ~ade checknarks just as neat as my mother 1 s beside several expensive toys and waited to see what would happen. When the toys ar!'ived, tiy nother was confounded. Dad put theIL- in the store to see if they woulci sell, but they were too expensive for most people to buy. One was a little tea table with.4 tiny chairs. Another was a miniature electric range which really cooked. When they didn't sell, Dad brought them ho~e to :u;,e. Don I t think I didn't enjoy them! 11 Margaret Wiseman 11 ) ------ 11 I was 5 years old and wanted a new doll badly.

Her father, Thomas Ethridge Terry was born at Chickasha, Ok ahoma Territory in 1887 and her mother, Lenore Estelle (Bailei) Terry was born at Fayetteville, Arkansas. The instinct to go west ured the Terrys just as it had thousands of others. 11 In 1 91 6," Jannie says, 11 :::n.y father sold his farm at 1n'heeler, put all e could carry in two covered wagons and started west. Though I was on y five at the time, I have several clear memories of the trip. One,night we camped beside a lake near Groom, Texas. With water so scarce on the plains, mother did not lose the chance to do the fa~ily washing. Except for some of our cattle dying of blackleg, the only unpleasant incident of the trip was an encounter with a Gypsy woman who picked my father 1 s pocket. l•'.y :parents were young, totally unfamiliar with th~ habits of Gypsies and, therefore, an easy prey. This was not our last experience with Gypsies." !11,'1e settled at Porter, New Mexico, w'.nere I went to schoo!. all 12 years. All the farming was dry land. Dad raised broom corn, maize and hay. Me cultivated big gardens and raised chickens, pigs and. cows. For sweetening we grew sugar cane. When it was mature, we cut and peeled it and took it to my uncle, who could make the best sorgun molasses you ever tasted. He had a press powered by horses to squeeze the juice out of the cane. The juice flowed -into a gently sloping metal trough under wh.:i.ch a fire was huilt. As the juice slo·,,;ly f,lowed back and forth down the chan,.'1els of the trough, it boiled until it was thickened to the right degree. We ground our o'l-m corn with a hand mill. It made delicious bread. Life was good in New Hexico until the dry years came. 11 11 When I finished school in 1929, I ~arried Wea.ver King. Wed.id OK on the farm until the drought of the 30 1 s. 7hen the bottom dropped out of prices. It got so bad we were selling eggs for 5 cents a dozen and ten gallon cans of cream for $2.50. We got rid of our cattle and bought sheep, thinking they could find something to eat even if the cows couldn 1 t. In those dry summers we got the ~ost terrific electric storms, but little or no rain •. The winds would raise clouds of dust as black as night. After it passed the dust stood 2 inches deep .on the fence posts. 11 11 our son, Tommy, was born in 1935. Until then we and a lot of other folks had hung on thinking the dry years would surely end and things get back to normal, but it kept right on. We began hearing talk of moving on. Some had done it. One of our neighbors had gone to Western Col6radc to look things over. He came back excited and told -us, 'That 1 s the Rock Candy Mountain out there. Apples hang from the trees~ gardens are full of everything you want to eat. Rivers are full of fish and the woods full of game. All you have to buy is coal oil, salt and baking powder. The rest is for the taking. 1 Weaver and I got excited, too. We asked a lot of questions and finally said, '_Tell us some of the bad things. 11 But he answered, 'No, I can tell you're coming anyway. You'll find out the bad things when you get there. 111 11 Well, he was right. We sold out and came to La Plata County, Colorado, in 1936. Weaver sold all his sheep and got 8 horses. He and a friend made one trip to Oxford just to bring the horses. They drove to Albuquerque and up thro~gh Cuba. It was the last of September before he was ready to take me and Tommy. One of our neighbors loaded our Pinto riding horse and its colt and all our possessions �~lr7~ 3 tnto his truck and headed west. Fearing the unpaved roads north of Albuquerque if it rained , he drovestraight to Gallup, up to Shiprock andthen to Aztec . It was a beautiful trip . As we got to the Colorado line just below Bondad, all I could see were great bluffs and rocky hillsides. I asked, 1 Is it all like this? ' They assured me it was not. We settled into a place S . E. of the old Hood School east of Durango and for the next several years rented places near Oxford." 11 As soon as we got here the drawbacks showed up. On the first Sunday it snowed . That whole winter it snowed and snowed until I thought it would never qui t and inthe spring I thought it would never melt. That was one drawt,ack. The other was mud. Oxford mud ought to be world famous. Because it's really mud. It was unbelievable. At first we couldn't cope with it. Weaver tried to feed the stock out of the wagon. Chunks· of mud the size of me fell off the wheels. He soon lea rned not to even try it unless the ground was frozen. The snow could be just as rough. I've seen horses get so tired trying to pull the wagon through it, they just lay dmm in the snow. After we got a car, we often had to leave it parked at the Oxford Store and walk home on the railroad tracks. 11 "That first winter little Tommy and I (he was just 15 months old) were snowbound many weeks. But we didn't mind. He loved to play in the snow and I'll have to admit I did too. We had plerity of firewood and a barrel of canned good, so we made it through the winter just fine. During the war years we milked 14 cows . Prices began to rise. Fe~ 2 while it looked as if the price of cream would go to a dollar a pound, but it reached $.99 and tha t 1 s as f ?,r as it got . :le bought our far□ north of Oxford with crea::? c:iecks . Weaver was the ditch rider, and did odc"i jobs as well as work the farm to make a living. The highlight of his yea.r was the elk season. 11 The Kings two :hildren still live in the area. Tommy married Janie Baird and lives in Ignacio. Beth married Jim Sower and li ves in Bayfield, Weaver died in 1965 . J annie stayed on the farm for 3 years, than moved into Ignacio. When asked ,,·?hether she ever had second thoughts about moving to. Colorado, Jannie says, 11 You se e we didn. 1 t leave. I've been her e 42 years and it all adds up pretty well. 11 1 Shelby Smith A new Catholic church has been under construction for soce months along highway 172 to·,mrd allison .

The t own of Perdenal es sits in the Sierra ~adre R~nge in the west part of Chi huahua. Jose has little !l':emory of his life there. His father, Flores Alf onso Audera, died when Joe was an infant. This was followed by the death of his mother, Fra~ces, in 1915 when Joe was 8. It is a natter of speculation what would have becone of Joe if he had spent the remainder of his life in :-rexico. However, when his aunt and uncle, the Durans, who li vcd in :Sncinada, Hew· I:exico, heard abcut their sister's death, they decided to go see about the family. ".·lhat they found was little Jose, 8 ::,;ears old, in need of a new father and mother .. They brought him home with the□ and changed ~is nar:ie from Andera to Duran. 11 1-Iy uncle, Rosario Duran, was a blacksmith. As soon as I was old enough, he began to teach ;De some of the trade. Hy aunt Dolores Duran died when I was 11. Soon after this my uncle sold out and moved to _Edith,Colorado. I never went to school even one day. There was always too much work to do. At the age of 14 I began h9rding sheep for Felix Garcia, then later for Charley Red. Once in a while we had trouble with bears attacking the sheep and would have to go O!l a bear hunt. 11 Jose and his wife had six children. They are Niguel and )..rturo who l ive i n Ogden, Utah; Juanita and Ru~aldo who live in Albuquerque; 1-'.ar.y Monto ya i.:ho l ives in. 3lanco and Rosa who lives in Chama, N. :,:. Betwe en jobs with the sheep herding, Joe worked in Harry S~ith's Savmi.ill i!l LuJT:berton . In 1944, even though Joe was 37 years old, he decided to join the army~ The war was still going strong. Joe was sent to the Pacific a..'1d spent ti!Ile in Hawaii, the ?hillipi!'1es arid Japan. After 7 years he came home to :::dith, which he used as. ho!!:.e base for the next 11 years. In 1962 Joe sold his far?:. at Edith, noved to Pagosa and worked for San Juan Lu~ber until he retired. In the spring of this year he rented one of the apartr::ients in the senior center in Ignacio ·where he has · proved to be one of the best gardeners in_La Plata County. Two years ago Joe got to r eturn to see his relatives in Perdenales, • Vi-exico. Joe looked at the dry r::ountains surrounding the toTtm and 1. wondered how different his life would have been if his aunt and uncle ha1 not arrived in 1915. Shelby Smith Dan and :,:ary Shaughnessy after getting their ho::ie to be painted :papered , cabinets constructed and new fixtures installed and considerablE car,enterery have moved fros the Agency to their new hor::e in the BOO block on Brmming avenu~.

August 8th, 1899._. His parents were Price Williams, a Southern Ute, and Marie Capote from the Nortnern Ute Tribe. 11 My parents kept sheep, hoI"ses and some cattle _ , and moved around to find good pasture. We always came back to the Florida. The river bottom was_ a good place to raise potatoes and corn •. . The whole area had d_eer and other game. There was no hetter river than the Florida. It ~as clear and full of fish and turtles. While I was still young, my parentsbuilt a two-room frame house in the river bottom. We had good neighbors. Nicholas and Peter Eaton lived nearby. It was a very good life. No boundaries and no fences. We could go to the high mountains or to the valleys to find pasture or to hunt without anyone to tell us no. 11 11 When I was ten years old , my parents sent me to the bearding schocl at Ignacio. It was pretty bad there at first. I snake only Ute. After a while l began to learn English from the other chiidren. I liked the holidays when I could ride our horses and be free. In the suI!'.l!Ilers I herded the sheep fpr my Dad. 7here was goo~ hunting around the sheep camps. I shot my flrst doe when I was 16. Borne of the bucks we got were so heavy we had to cut them up or carry them on a horse. 11 11 I donrt go to powwows any more, but I liked them when I was young. The tribe used to put on a real show. There were different styles of dancing, more than now. The Bear Dance was always the first dance of the season. In the 1920 1 s the Sun Dancewas started here. I think it came from Oklahoma.'! ur went only to 5th grade at the boarding school. When I quit, I enrolled at the country school at La Posta for a while to learn Spanish. 11 "In 1918 I was ready to enlist in the army to go to the war in France, but before I got in, the war ended; so I traveled around working at different jobs for a while. In 1920 I got to visit rny grandfather, ~ames Capote, in Ft. Duchesne. He told me many things about the Utes, but I have forgotten most of it. My father died in 1921. Soon afterward we built a house north of Ignacio. I ~orked at the Indian Agency for many years plo...:ing and running the thrashing machine." Roy married Labrara Radea. They had one daughter, M~ry Suazo.. Later Roy married Mary Bean. Their children are 1-fary Santisteven, Vonnestine Eerrera and Eileen Weaver. Roy remembers seeing automobiles around Ignacio as early as 1913, but h~ never owned his own car until 1939 when he bought a Mercury. He says, 11 We had a good life after the Second World War. I had a good job and also made money raising sheep and cattle. We owned seven different cars and did some traveling around. 11 · Mary died in 1961. The only one of Roy's brothers or sisters still living is Belle Cutthair. Recently Roy moved from his home north of Ignacio to one of the apartemts at the senior center. He 1s now 79. His vision is f air and his hecring' is excellent. He says, 11 I never thought I'd live this long, but here I am. 11 ' Shelby Smith �~ ?t'~: ~~; ~: ~~'l;l'1?T ~~ 1:1:,~~ ~-~ - R~lr~ ~~ - f f ~ ~ ~~~ f;d,L,/41JW--c,-_~ ,:u:.. ,J.,ul,u - 'r"f./#.~ - f r ~ ~ ~ 0~ ~ -·.r- •. -~- .. ~ _...... ,-.J -~~ ~ L.J ~ �Mrs. Lousia Hartig had company during the Labor Day Holidays . &re from Denver were her gra.nddaughter, Marsha and her husband, John Johnsen and his pa.rents , Mr . and Mrs .

John Hasstedt 11 !,ry first la:nruage was aI tdl;- r-J 7i German, it Mr. Hasstedt rec;:alls. 11My parents we:-e both born in Germany and. migrated to America when they.were teen.;. a,g ers. ~'.y :athcr, J&cob hasstcdt, came to New York alone when he·was 'i'7 , fO"t a j'ob in a store and soon learned English well. He always had a noticeable accent, but he could speak i.n public, if necessary. Ny mother, Julie Henning, moved to Boone, Iowa, where one of her brothers had a bakery. Dad settled into that part of Iowa t o f arm. A few yeari after he and mother were married. Dad be~an to develon a serious asthma condition. His doctors recommended'a .move to western Kansas for a drier cli~atE• When I was nine months old, my parents loaded me, my two older sisters,and my older brother into a covered wagon and headed west. They settled on a homestead near Buffalo Park, now called Park, Kansas. Our first heme there ~as a dugout, very warm, but small. Dad built a sod stable for the farm animals·. Each year we planted trees and made other i:t1provements to qualify for ownership of the homestead. The cli□ate was harsh. There were snow blizzards in winter and blistering hot winds in summer. I ha~e passed green fields of corn in the morning and returned in the evening to hear the leaves rattling and dry after only one day of hot wind. 11 Af ter the liasstedt's claim was clear, they were permitted to file on a timber clai m near the Saline River, 4 miles away. About this time, they bou ght a one rocm frame house to rr:.ove onto 0heir land. Even though it was small, it was an improvement over the dugout. The children climbed a ladder to sleep in the attic. The winter wind often sifted snow through the shingles, piling snow on their beds. 11 I started to school at tbe age of 8. Since tax money was very sca·rce, school session lasted at the most 6 months and som~times only 4 months. There were no grades. Pupils read in the First Reader, the Second Reader, etc. Each year every student, no matter how old, started with the First Reader, reading through the familiar material, book after book,for a review until they reached a difficult level~ At that time the teacher would would assist them to learn the new words. Hy help was needed on the farm each fall. Instead of starting to school in Septe~ber, it .was usually Thanksgiving before I could go. I began plev..ring with a \-1alking plow when I was 12. We used a breaking plow to cutthe tightly knit sod to open new l~nd.. Then we used a stirring plow to break up and turn the soil. Fiollow-..: ing the plow is weary work. I caught myself sleepwalking many timesJ awakening only when the plow had hit a rock. By attending school only part time, I was 21 years old before I finished 8th grade. 11 "There was little for young peoplE~ to enjoy in those days. Sometimes we had parties, or school activities or church acti.vities. The first minister in that part of Kansas was a Congregationalist preacher. I joined that church when I was 12. From the time I was a small child, I liked to listen to the preachers speak and wished I could do that. This desire stayed with me. In my early 2O 1 s I decided to·enroll in the Moody Bible Institute in Chicago to learn more about the Bible. I rode the train to Chicago and was amazed at the city. The lamplighter, the elevated railways, everything was new to ~e. I attended the institute for 6 months and was still undecided about preaching when I returned home. Soon after, some of the people told the minister, 1 Let Rudolph preach. 1 11 It took me 2 weeks to w.ci te a sermon. \fnen the day came., I was quite _nervous, but it went over well. The people liked it and most important I found out I could do it and enjoyed doing it. Soon afterward I enrolled in a Congregational Church Academy at Eureka, Kansas. There I went to school and preached fo1• 2 country churches. rr In 1907 Susie Frnnces McClure and I were married. After finishing �.3 '',. a.t 'the academy, we moved to Topeka where I attended Washburn College." ii Afterwards, Su ~;ie and I decided to move to Kiowa County in Colorado. We homesteaded land near Eads. A Presbyterian minister ·came to preach at ,--') Fads once a month from La Junta. When the people found out I could preach, . • they let me speak for them and soon gave f!le his job. I soon was traveling to t,.,;o cou:ntTy churches to preach part time. With a horse and buggy it required a lot of time going back and forth. I,·fy first Model T expanded my range considerably, They soon h~d me going to Chivington and Brandon, also. To !'.lost coru:.!on people the Model T was the most important invention of that time. It ,-rould travel in all kinds of weather. Rain or snow all you had to do was button down the side curtains, put your nose against the windshield and go. Once while I was taking an elderly man to the doctor in Colorado Springs, I remarked to hi~, 1 r don't see why anybody would want a.i-:iything any better than this. 1· It was a cold miserable day. The side curtains were flapping in the wind and we were wrapped in blankets. Uneomfortable as people would be today~ we thought it was wonderful to make such sneed. 11 11 In 191 B we 1:1oved to Florida Mesa to work with the Presbyterian congregations there and at Bayfield. Our trip across the mountains was an experience to remember. Wolf Creek Pass was little more than a trail. We stayed 3 years, living in the 1,:anse on Florida Hesa before moving en to ~onument. I was out of the ministry for one year, then was assigned to the Honument church for 13 years. 11 11 In 1937 I was again assigned to the San .Juan Larger Parish ·which included Florida Mesa, Bayfield, Ignacio and Allisbn.I stayed with this assignnent until I retired in 1949. Jn the later years the roads improved but in the early years it was a real challenge to make the rounds. ~t cne time I had a Viodel T, a buggy , a sled and a saddle. All ;·rere needed c.t one time or another. 11 'I'he Hasstedt 1 s had three children. Julia now lives in Castle Rock. Cecil ~nd Dorothy are both in Bayfield. Susie Hasstedt died in December of 1965, i•il" Hasstedt is now 99. He has this bit of advice,'Old age is not all fun. Fut it off as long as possible.' Of course this is said in fun. Hr. Hasstedt is in good health. His hearing is good. He ha~ a good appetite and he feels good. Best of all~ his mind is sharp and full of good humor. One thing he regrets is the gradual losing of his eyesi_ght. He has given away all ,h;i.s books. 1 . nl can 1 t read any more. Fortunately, I have memorized a good deal of scripture, but I have forgotten a lot of it, too. They usually let me preach on the Sunday nearest to my birthday. I don't like to talk about hell and damnation. Hy favorite subject of them all is God and his plan of salvation for all men. 11 . Hr. Hasstedt now lives in Bayfieild with his son, Cecil and his daughterin law, Doris. ·we wish to thank him for all the years he has been a help and an encouragement to his fellowman and wish him many more years of good health.
