has never been equal for rich, flavored, easy going mildness,
real smoking satisfaction every time you light up. The best
tobacco makes the best smoke. Al In my search for
AMOSR Bradberry MD, I pursued the false leads and wrong
hunches for two thousand seven and forty nine miles and
became the one decision I would never again leave the
Cotton Hotel on any assignment more difficult than finding a
needle in a haystack. After following a trail to the
mouth of the Missouri River in Dakota Territory, which ended
in another discouragement, I decided to give up and took
passage down river on the packet Yellowstone Bell. The small
stern wheeler carried a cargo of fur pelts, and one
other passenger name was Benjamin Tuggs, a tough, wizzled old
muftain man. The fourth day is usually get tied up
to the river.
Speaker 3: Bank at sundown.
Speaker 1: Sometime before daylight, I awakened and went out on deck.
My fellow passenger was conning.
Speaker 3: At the rail.
Speaker 1: I shed a salkini mush head, misbegotten son with a
nose better than to sit tight with a payload of
skin stinging up his boat, pulling out of invite. This
close to them, hostile, I beg your pardon, you might
as relief, and now just keep down mischief. They're more coming. Look,
this is a rick of our country, isn't I don't
know they were hostile. He used to be mostly friendly.
And they got their damn draped back a piece because
they were cheated by some white fur traders where they
want the cargo and a few scalps. There's only eight
of us on his tail, but there's about six hundred
dam engines strung out along them, riverbanks. How can you tell?
So it's too black out there to see anything.
Speaker 3: It's my business, mister on a scout.
Speaker 4: Huh.
Speaker 1: I see I can't smell them, and I know this
is any time to sit still in August. Gotta get
and listen.
Speaker 3: He go right across the other side.
Speaker 1: Oh damn mean to eating vomits. They's putting me in
the water where they're pool and they're gonna surround us.
Looks like we're gonna have to argue after all. Might
as loose break out the life hosey hubs. They're using
fire aisles. That hick mister, one of them catches you.
Here's a little old guy up hunkle wood rope hooting on.
He's just gonna go up and one of them deadn't
there goes to the wheelhouse. I gotta get the water bucket.
Speaker 5: No good day's coming from all side, the pools putting the.
Speaker 3: Skips in the water. Tell let's get my hand out.
Speaker 1: I gotta get my orders in my table, the orders. Huh,
come back, come us? Where are you all right here?

Speaker 6: Herd.
Speaker 1: But we get off this timp. We shill got them
speaking redskins to take care of one thing at a time.
Speaker 3: Let's call.
Speaker 1: This is the cold season. What the medical authorities say
about the common cold. Doctors tell us there's no known
drug which will cure cold. There are effective medications for
treating complications accompanying or following a cold. If you've been
taking sensible precautions and still have one cold after another,
it's best to see your doctor. And here's another important
health tip. When you have a cold and need a laxative,
that's the time to rely on gentle xlax pleasant tasting chocolate,
A x lax helps you toward your normal regularity gently overnight.
X lax gets along with any cold remedies you may
be taking, and xlax works where nature wants in the
lower tracts, not the stomach. Taken at bedtime, X lax

normal regularity without upset or discomfort. So when you have

laxative you can use with complete confidence. X lax helps
you toward your normal regularity gently overnight x lax. The
burning yellowstone bell made an eerie glow against the black
of the night. The river was alive with shadowy dugouts,
and the Indians were no longer silent but shrill. Now
with a victory, Benjamin tubbs and eyes slipped into the river,
and with my arm across his chest, we went deep
under the water to the far bank. I managed to
pull him up on the marshy slope, and I half
carried and half dragged him, and we fought our way
through the swampy jungle growth until I lost all track
of time. Finally we reached the rocky clearing and the
sun was high. Oh this is where then Cabsure is

Speaker 6: But because most he has enjoyed much pain.
Speaker 3: NIC's doup.
Speaker 1: Old fella say, I wanna say, uh the reason I
was interested in the name of this doctor your husband? Yeah, well,
I was hired to find a certain doctor, Amos Bradbury,
who left his home on the eastern coast of this
country because of an an injustice that was done with him.
And I followed this trail for many miles and finally
to Fort Union here on the river.
Speaker 6: What did you I bury injustice?
Speaker 1: Well, the man who wronged him is dying and wants
to make amends. Now Bradberry had a wife and a child,
and he felt that he had brought displace to them.
But now the truth will be told, and his family
and the world he left will learn that there was
no dishonor.
Speaker 6: And why do you tell me this, mister Palagine, I.
Speaker 1: Wanna say I I'm thinking.
Speaker 3: It's been ten years.
Speaker 1: The doctor has probably made a new life for himself.
Perhaps he has found a pleasant place to live and
someone to share it with him, and maybe he just
as soon forget what's passed, mister Pologine's.
Speaker 2: My husband's name, a white man is Amos Bradberry. Somehow
I thought so his Indian name.
Speaker 4: We suck a kick the yup, he's too.

and so like that, After all the days and all
the miles, my search was ended. But it didn't seem
to matter just then. More important at the moment was
to see that Ben Tubbs got the care he needed.
When we reached the Indian village, his condition was serious,
and Whennise had some men carry him immediately to a
little stone building set up as a hospital, she didn't
mention the doctor again that night, nor did I. She
bandaged my burned hand, gave me food in the blanket,
and I spent the night under.
Speaker 3: A coold sky.
Speaker 1: In the morning I went to see Ben. He was
lying on a narrow cot in a small bare room.
When you saw me, he made a quick brush at
the big tear on his good little face, scowled and cut,
loose and rubbery headed.

Speaker 2: Do you see there the troll rock on the blust
m Yes, that his enion was lucky, that he's the
figure of a woman olding child.
Speaker 3: Uh huh.
Speaker 2: My people have legend that a certain boy once took
a second wife, and first wife became jealous, and when
tribe moved on, she refused to to follow, but remained
by her lodge holding her child. And when many days
passed and still she had not joined them, the tribes
then became concerned returned to look for her, and they
found her sitting by her lodge holding her child, but
she had turned to stone.
Speaker 3: Now I'm afraid I don't under stony.
Speaker 2: Wait. So the tribes then picked up the stone figure
and they carried it back with them, And after that,
wherever tribe moved, enian Wislaka was carried along. She was
always there.
