THE NORWALK EXPERIMENT, Ohio, June 21, 1859  Page 2 has an interesting article: "Horrible Tales of Sufferings on the Plains - 300 Emigrant Starved to Death on the Smoky Hill Route - Experience of Two Young Men from Waume County, Ind." This report tells of the travails of those heading towards California on the land route.
Four pages, a bit close-trimmed at the bottom not affecting this article, nice condition.
