Jon, Lots of insperation floating around out there for sure. Thanks for your kind words. Glad you enjoyed the story. > [btw: is your rifle an antique or was your rifle custom built?, i.e., > first time heard of that name and being .62]. It is an antique about two years old. I made it last year in October in anticipation of taking it on my first Idaho elk hunt. That hunt last year resulted in a fine fat cow on the 14th day of the hunt, the day before I would have to leave for home. The gun is a design of Mark Silver whom I understand is a contemporary custom gun maker. His basic idea is representative of a long rifle of around 1760-80 as I recall. Jim Chambers, Mark Silver and Getz colaborate to put out the lock, stock, and barrel for assembly as a kit gun. I'm well pleased with the rifle and expect it will fill my meat pole many times over before I pass it on to my son. I remain... YMOS Capt.

I'm at work, so I can't cite page numbers from hard copy books. These are on Dean Rudy's web page, for your reading pleasure. Also included is a description of different moccasin types, from George Ruxton. ===================================================== Letters by Wm. Becknell regarding the early Southwestern trade. For instance, we subsisted two days on soup made of a raw hide we had reserved for sealing our moccasins; on the following morning the remains were dished up into a hash. =================================================== John B. Wyeth's Oregon, or a Short History of a Long Journey The Flat-heads were well dressed. They wore buck-skin frocks and pantaloons, and moccasins, with seldom any thing on their heads. They draw a piece of fresh buffalo hide on their feet, and at night sleep with their feet not far from the fire, and in the morning find their shoes sitting as snug to their feet as if they had been measured by the first shoe-maker in Boston. It is probable that no people have so little shoepinching as these savages. I never heard any one complain of corns, or kibed-heels, severe as the weather is in winter. The women wear moccasins also, but whether made in the same extempore method as those of the men, I know not. I suspect they must experience some shoepinching. ================================== Journal of a Trapper, by Osborne Russell We had plenty of Meat however and made Mocasins of raw Elk hide =========================== The River of the West - Chapter 1 In the spring, when the camp breaks up, the skins which have been used all winter for lodges are cut up to make moccasins: because from their having been thoroughly smoked by the lodge fires they do not shrink in wetting, like raw skins. This is an important quality in a moccasin, as a trapper is almost constantly in the water, and should not his moccasins be smoked they will close upon his feet, in drying, like a vice. Sometimes after trapping all day, the tired and soaked trapper lies down in his blankets at night, still wet. But by-and-by he is wakened by the pinching of his moccasins, and is obliged to rise and seek the water again to relieve himself of the pain. For the same reason, when spring comes, the trapper is forced to cut off the lower half of his buckskin breeches, and piece them down with blanket legging, which he wears all through the trapping season. ===================================== Bradbury's Travels in the Interior of America We continued to pursue our course along the creek, but with great trouble, as our mockassons, being of untanned skins, became so soft as to render it difficult to keep them on our feet. =================================== Ruxton's 'Wild Life in the Rocky Mountains Each tribe of Prairie Indians has a different method of making moccasins, so that any one, acquainted with the various fashions, is at no loss to know the nation to which any particular one belongs whom he may happen to meet. The Arapahos and Cheyennes use a "shoe" moccasin, that is, one which reaches no higher than the instep, and wants the upper sideflaps which moccasins usually have. I always used Chippewa moccasins, which differ from those of the Prairie make, by the seam being made up the center of the foot to the leg, and puckered into plaits. This, which is the true fashion of the "Forest Indian," (who, by the by, is as distinct in character and appearance from him of the "plains" as a bear from a blue-bottle) attracted the attention of the Arapaho warriors, and caused a lively discussion amongst themselves, owing to the novelty of the manufacture. They all surrounded me, and each examined and felt carefully the unusual chaussure. Towards the latter end of April green grass began to show itself in the bottoms, and -myself and two others, who had been wintering in the mountains for the benefit of their health, made preparations for our departure to the United States. Pack-saddles were inspected and repaired, apishamores made, lariats and lassos greased and stretched, mules and horses collected from their feeding-grounds, and their fore feet shod. A small supply of meat was "made" (i. e. cut into thin flaps and dried in the sun), to last until we reached the buffalo-range; rifles put in order, and balls run; hobbles cut out of rawhide, parfleche moccasins cobbled up, deerskin hunting-shirts and pantaloons patched, and all our very primitive "kit" overhauled to render it serviceable for the journey across the grand prairies, while the "possible-sack" was lightened of all superfluities -- an easy task by the way. =============================================================== Three Years Among the Indians and Mexicans, Chapter 1, by Thomas James My feet, in addition to all other sufferings, now became sore and more painful than ever. The men had made for me a moccasin of skin taken from the legs of a buffalo, and which I wore with the hair next my feet and legs. I felt the blood gurgling and bubbling in this casing at every step. ============================ The River of the West - Chapter 7 I have taken the soles off my moccasins, crisped them in the fire, and eaten them. ======================== Narrative of Robert Campbell They would cut off bears feet, and use them as moccasins to steal up and capture horses. ========================================================================== Well, there they are. I'm not going to try to draw a lot of conclusions. Looks like they made do with what they had, which for me seems like the best approach. I have and will continue to put a rawhide outer sole on my mocs. It is a necessity here in the STONY mountains if you're going to hike very far. If the rocks don't get you, the cactus will. Looks like Ruxton agreed with Mike about the center seam mocs. There were also several references to cactus and sand burrs "piercing the best of moccasins", but did not say that these had rawhide soles or not. Somewhere at home I have a period reference to a two-piece, separate sole & upper, being made. I'll have to look that one up. Hope somebody out there can use all this.

I sew a canvas or old jean skirt onto the bottom of the hide tube to protect it from the heat. Start a small fire in the grill, and when it burns down, add rotten cotton wood, hickory chips, or whatever you like. Put the top on the grill, position the hide tube over the vent and smoke away. The smoke escapes out from the little vent in the top right into the hide tube, works great. Never had anybody question what I was doing. Can only do one at a time this way, but that's all I ever seem to have ready at any given time.

In the stove we burn the usual punk cottonwood chips or other dry smoky (not resinous) material. The hide is ready in 1-2 hours. You could presumably get away with this in any neighborhood which tolerates burning of leaves etc. If not, you might have to attempt this at the next rendezvous or camp, which would make an interesting demonstration. The fully primitive method (aside from hanging in the tipi) involves doing the same thing as above, without the stove, using a small fire in a pit with skin tented over it. A properly brain-tanned but unsmoked hide will keep fine as long as it is dry.

No matter if the references agree with me or not, that is how we all learn. And even decide on what to wear, use and put on. The Denver Art Museum does have some Indian Mocs with thin rawhide soles, a little later than we portary, but still around. I do agree that some times a hard sole is nice to have, there have been camps where it has taken a year or more to get all the prickly pear needles out of the mocs and not have the sox stay in the mocs when you pull your foot out. I find the side seam to be my favorite, all moc styles have their pros and cons (hard soles being they are so slippery in wet grass and when wet all the way through). And even the side seams take regular restiching to redo the front stiches from scuffing and dragging of the feet. mike.
