April so, 1849 Millions of stars are looking down on these rolling plains of Western Missouri where the many tracks of the California Trail curve out from this town of Inde- pendence across the Line into the Indian territory be- yond. On every side, as far as you can see tonight, earthly stars - the Campfires of all this multitude of eager, restless Forty-Niners - twinkle on the ground, being fed by members of the most excited army that was ever assembled in the New World, every one im- patient for mud to dry and spring grass to grow so that these shaggy regiments can get on their way. So wrote Archer Butler Hulbert in a reconstructed chronicle of the California Trail. Iust as months of preparation had gone into the building, the equipping, and the journeying thus far of the sixteen wagons of this most excited army so have years of preparation gone into the class of '49. It seems best, therefore, to call this Hrst section of our salute to the Forty-Niners - Preparation. And didn't we prepare -- algebra, class elections, money-raising campaigns, collections of bugs, themes for English class, etc.? There was many a wide river to cross. Here you will see the freshmen, sophomores and juniors. Here is the faculty at work. Here are various practice camps or classes and some memorable school scenes of our preparation.
