Shot on location of Oregon's Trail of Tears Day 28 March 20th 1856 (Thursday) “The weather still continues cloudy and threatening rain. We secured a good pasture last night for our cattle and this morning quite early were under way. Our route lay immediately down Long Tom over a level prairie country. In consequence of recent rains our wagons dragged along heavily all day. We drove a distance of fifteen miles and encamped on the bank of Mary's River at the ferry. A every had days drive, but no camp could be found short of this. - George H. Ambrose, Indian Agent
