They all got fever'n'ague and their neighbor, Mrs. Scott, took care of them. On Christmas the creek was high, but Mr. Edwards the neighbor, brought presents for them from Santa. There were Indian war cries every night. An Osage Indian stopped the war cries and stopped them from fighting the settlers.
