From the Mauston Star
Thursday September13, 1894
F. R. Potter and family, of Summit and their two sons and families
returned to their old home last week, after a journey by team of several
months. They started for Colorado, but only went as far as old Fort
Kearney, Nebraska, where they found it impossible to obtain feed of any kind
for their teams, on account of the dry weather, and so they took the road
back. In going through several States and the Dakotas, they report
that they found no better place than Wisconsin in which to live. We
are pleased to welcome them back.
