Troubled all last night with the jaw ache and this morning find my face swollen as big as a peck measure, but able to do duty at breakfast. Our journey this day was still in the 130 CALIFORNIA, A TRIP ACROSS THE PLAINS 81 valley of the Sweet Water, having traveled up it some fifty miles; the country is quite barren, though it is better here than we have seen since leaving Fort Laramie. Traveled twenty miles to-day on a loose, sandy road, and somewhat hilly. It is astonishing how ox teams can tr...avel. They will pass now twenty miles per day with more ease than they would sixteen the day we left the Bluffs. Their feet have been very sore, but traveling in the hot sand lias greatly im proved them. Wednesday, June 12. We were up and on our way by five o clock this morning, and found our blanket coats very com fortable. At ten we arrived at the second crossing of the Sweet Water river, and finding it too high to ford, we took our provisions out of our wagon, and stretching a rope across the river, we ferried our things across in a little less than no time.
