- Notes:
- Purports to be a narrative, taken from the journal of Ezekiel Williams and other sources, of the wanderings of Williams, James Workman and Samuel Spencer in the western country from 1807 to 18l0. The work is called a fabrication by H. M. Chittenden (American fur trade, 1902, v.2, p.651-656) It apparently has, however, some foundation in fact. Cf. Louis Houck, Hist. of Missouri, l908, v.3, p.93-94.
