My Dear Sir,
I do indeed thank you for your condolences. I fear it will not be an
easy road without my dear husband, as he did leave me with barren
fields and a real lack in the larder.
Your most kind offer is most appreciated, although to be sure, I
will be needing every penny to feed my poor children.
God bless you Sir, and may your silver medal bring you only joy and
good fortune.
May peace be forever in your soul,
The Widow Julia

Subject: MtMan-List: Building Flintlocks
I am at a point where I think I would like to acquire or build myself a
flintlock. Several months back there was some discussion about guns and
making guns. I have done some research and have developed some interest in
the Pecotonica Long Rifle Company. They produce several different guns one
of which, the southern mountain rifle, has drawn my interest. Has anyone had
any experience with this particular company or can you direct me to some
place I could find a great shooting rifle? I'm looking for something that
would be found during the early 1800's (1810 to 1830).

Steve,
There are many good builders today, from full custom to semi custom factory
guns. If you have an interest to build then by all means do it, but be aware
that your first few attempts will probably not be up to what they should be.
Building guns can be a full time effort and you may loose track of why you
got into it in the first place. If one is doing it to save money, you
wontthe tooling will eat up the savings in a hurry.
I would first go out and shoot a flintlock and see if you can get use to it,
then look at all the diferent makers that you can, to find out what you
like. Are you going to hunt? and what are you going to hunt?.
You need to become an expert in the subject before you acquire your own. Now
having said all that, I saw a piece made by Caywood and was impressed with
the work and price, but there are probably others.

why dont you make a rubber mold of it and have a silver lost wax casting
made of it then it would be more correct and probably cost about the same
as having the bronze one plated---

contact Danial anderson in decatur ill he has a lewis and clark bead
given to him by mrs Good who is the expert on beads of that time
span---she has a awsome collection---dont believe the one you were
describing was correct for the lewes and clark one and it was also not
like a chevron type of bead either which was a trade item of the
period---I dont know much about beads but dan does and when i have a
question I usually direct it to him---"he's in the book "who's who in
buckskins" and has a AMM # less than 100---can give you his phone number
if you wish to call and talk to him---let me know offline---dan and I
have done several good walk abouts---out west---dan called those (L
&C)beads cobald or something like that---
dan's e-mail address is Decaturdan@juno.com ----contact him he also
has 6 goose egg chevrons that he got from me ---I won them at a shootin
match in the early 60's originals given by a museum as a prize because
they had no way to display them properly---dan is real proud of those
goose eggs------

Larry,
It's great that you can get out often enough that you can walk properly in
the woods with your moccasins. It really does bring you closer to nature. I
had that skill once, but have lost it because I haven't been able to keep
in practice.
I know that if I were to wear my moccasins with a single sole and a wool
liner, I would be experiencing pain & discomfort which the Natives & fur
traders did not. The extra layers on the bottom & inside of my moccasins
make up for the thin soles on my feet, my lack of skill in walking, and the
unhistoric surfaces at some of the events which I regularly attend. Also, I
can't keep afford to replace my mocs when the soles wear out quickly due to
being worn on pavement or sharp gravel for a week.
There's still a world of difference between my moccasins + extra sole + Dr.
Scholl's liners and the Vibram-soled walking shoes I ordinarily wear.
Your humble & obedient servant,
Angela Gottfred

Subject: Re: MtMan-List: Lewis and Clark beads
Although there is no specific ref to Lewis & Clark carrying the bead you
refer to, "The History of Beads" by Dubin shows the design you mention, and
others that are similar, and identifies them as being European wound-glass
beads from the 19th Century and says they were extremely popular as trade
items in both Africa and North America. Manufactured by flame-working,
starting with winding filaments of glass on a mandrel, then rolling or
paddling to produce the shape, then flame-working again while trailing thin
canes of glass or cross-sections of canes across the surface, then rolling or
paddling again to press the design into the background glass, yielding a
smooth, finished product.
I will look for other sources to directly connect them to L & C, and post the
results, if any. Barney

You continue to do what you need to do and let the others have their =

That's when I received my "bag axe" from Dennis. I can tell you it is a
