It occurs to me that in my reports to the London Times, there are many incidents which I have omitted, things seen and heard during my past three months in the American West.
Here, then, some random notes.
Herewith, an Englishman's account of life and death in the West.
As a reporter for the London Times, he writes his colorful and unusual stories.
But as a man with a gun, he lives and becomes a part of the violent years in the new territory.
Now, starring John Daner, this is the story of J.B. Kendall, Frontier Gentleman.
These random notes are being written as I journey from Deadwood to Cheyenne on the Cheyenne and Black Hills stage line.
A tall gentleman in high hat, black broadcloth frock coat, a dirty shirt with a torn paper collar and a most singularly unpressed pair of nankeen trousers.
He stood outside a saloon with a small case of bottles set before
him.
About a dozen men and women were crowded around in a small yellow dog
slumber.
Pollock's original Mameluke liniment, a sovereign remedy for man and beast.
It is confidently recommended to the afflicted as an infallible remedy for the following diseases to it.
Burns, cramps, Pains in the joints, sore throat, frosted feet, rheumatism, spinal complaints, lumbago, all sores, cuts, bruises, sprains, pains in the back or side, headaches, cutaneous affections.
Ague, ache, bites of insects or reptiles, salt, rue, mange, cracked hands, tatter, dysentery, cholera, morbis, and
cholera.
What about the
heaves, mister? Ah, the heaves, you ask.
Ah, and in this bottle, the answer to your question, sir.
Pollock syrup of sassafras.
a cure, nature's noblest remedy for heaves, consumption, bronchitis, croup or hives, cold coughs, asthma, hoarseness, difficulty of breathing, purifying the blood, whooping cough, and a dozen ailments too horrible to mention in a public street.
To any of you afflicted with any of the diseases I have mentioned, or some that I have not, Don't delay.
