[227] Hoover in his _Expedition to Spirit Lake_ in the _Hamilton Freeman_ (Webster City), August 20, 1857, speaks of Major Williams as “afflicted with rheumatism, and the frost of 70 winters whitening his brow” as resolutely setting “forward at our head.” This Major Williams resented and took occasion to reply in the succeeding issue of the _Freeman_ that “I can’t agree to be made so old. I was 60 last December [1856], and never have I been afflicted with rheumatism in my life.... I don’t wish to be considered so old.” CHAPTER XXII [228] _Address of John N.
