EARLY HISTORY OF WOODSTOCK
We got our teams mired in those treacherous marshes and were obliged to camp out one night in that then malarious and desolate region, with nothing to eat ourselves, and nothing for our teams but some poor marsh hay, a stack of which stood like a lone sentinel of the desert to greet us, and near by was a bit of board nailed to a tree, upon which appeared in chalk letters a caution to travelers to be careful of fire, lest their only means of food for teams should be destroyed.
