Description
Mrs Hatchard joined us
in Phoenix about Jan.
14 - (1926) Soon after she
came we joined Mr and Mrs
Will Perry and family, his
father, "Stace" Perry, of Croton, O
and his aunt Mrs Rice, of Mich,
and drove across the desert
folling a canal most the
way, after
toward Mt McDowell that old
pile of red, red rocks. so
conspicuous an obj for miles,
and miles about Phoenix and other
Salt Riv, Valley towns, to Fort
McDowell- This is now an
Apache Indian Res., tho quite
a number of the government
buildings are still is use.
It was here that Uncle Sam had
his last fight with the Apaches,
clearing up the latter, so now
quite a few are living in their
shacks in this Res.
We saw five specimens of mesquite
trees going here. Returning we visited
Dam - and drove home across the
desert.
