Read the following passage from Journal of the Adventures of a Party of California Gold-seekers by Margaret Frink:
We had left home just five months and seven days before. Our friends the Carsons came into camp with us. They had crossed the Missouri River with us on the fourteenth day of May, at Bullard's Ferry, ten miles below Council Bluffs, but after that were separated from us for weeks and months at a time. They were strongly of the opinion that Mr. Frink would never get through, because he brought his wife with him. Yet here we are, all together once more, safe at the end of our long and eventful journey.
