However, from the start of our journey, misfortune followed us everywhere. Our first trouble happened in St. Louis when our guide disappeared, taking all the money we paid him!

“What are we going to do?” I asked as I kicked the dirt at my feet. “I don’t want to go back to Louisiana, but I guess we’ll have to. There’s no way for us to get to Kansas now.”

Rosetta looked up, set her shoulders, and said, “Hmmph. Well, we’ve come this far. We’ll just have to go on without him.”
