As he did this his lead-yoke got tangled with some of Snyder's oxen. The two drivers got mad and began to argue among themselves. Snyder got so mad that he started to beat the other’s oxen with his whip. Reed got furious he didn’t like what Snyder was doing to the oxen of the wagon which he was riding in.

I found some extra candlesticks that would come in handy, as well as some buckets.

As I stood on top of my wagon, I noticed that there were…
