- Cecil C. Hunnicutt speaking: Elsie was just an infant at the time this moving took place from Colorado to Nebraska, but she may be able to tell us a bit about that, at least what she remembers about it...
Elsie: The thing I remember most about that trip was that we went to the Nebraska-Colorado line in the covered wagon, and from there we stayed all night, and Dad went on in the covered wagon, and we stayed in a, well, you couldn't call it a hotel, but I suppose they did call it a hotel, which had a little building in the back. And, before we went to bed, mother took the three of us out to this little building, and when we got ready to come back in, the minute we opened that door, a billy goat met us, and every time we opened that door a crack, that billy goat would be right there. And finally the innkeeper heard us yelling for help, came out, and chased the billy goat away.
