Hi§ ¢xploits were many and ceived in History and storis. Daniél Boone was typical of thé high- est type of backwoodsmen which America produced. From a bovheod of trapping and hunting he advanced to fearleds man- hood full of resourcefulnes§ and feady for any adventure. They came too, thick and fast, as they are apt to do in a semisavage country, sich as lay {n North Carolina, Booné's home at that time. Adventures which came in the course of his home life were not enough, either, for young Boone, and he was soon push- ing his way théough almost impenetfa- ble barriers, heiping to &hift the front- fer Tine of civilization. Among his most striking exploits was his leadershin of a party of seftlers to Kentucky, where they founded Boonesborough. ~ Shortly | and | for algebra, Migs Corneil for histéry and d faithtuily for a long. said to her one may have a holiday ta a fresh pail of milk for ¥ yo 24 “May T sell the milks Mfl‘ | 1t is your own you may do as you : ,fi' il 2l e cletht} for }5 iive Hageliysexer Frankiin.
