"One of the best Oregon Trail narratives." Mintz 222. "This is a detailed overland narrative to the Northwest part of the nation via South Pass. Hewitt's narrative is a good example of the nation's early pathfinders. The author went from Ft. Laramie by way of the Lander cutoff through what is now Wyoming and over the Mullan Road to Columbia. Hewitt's journal is one of the few printed of an 1862 crossing. Only a half dozen or so copies of the first edition exist in complete form."Flake 3973.

This edition 3973: "Encounters Mormon wagons on the trail, p. 77, 130-32, 139, 215-16." Hewitt condemns in no uncertain terms the foul language and behavior of the Mormon drivers, "A more sinister, brawling, profane gang would cut a throat or scuttle a ship, it would be difficult to collect together from the slums and cesspools of the universe.Fouler, viler and more blasphemous talk never in more continuous volume flowed from the lips of beings possessed of palates than came from those creatures, regardless of the decencies of life." - p. 89.Randall Henry Hewitt (1840-1916), b. Seneca Falls, NY; d. Los Angeles, CA. Hewitt became a newspaper man in the Washington Territory, and at one time had an owner's interest in both the Territorial Republican and the Temperance Echo.

The third and much expanded edition of the narrative which first appeared in 1862 under the title, Notes by the Way, and one of the best of all Oregon Trail narratives. Most copies of the third edition contain only 58 plates; this copy has a 59th, facing p. 230 (see Howes). Hewitt's journey followed, for the most part, a hitherto unknown and dangerous route, from Dundee, Illinois, to St. Joe, then up to Council Bluffs, overland to Laramie, Fort Hall, up to Coeur d'Alene, Spokane Falls, Portland and Olympia. He kept a detailed diary, and this narrative is one of the few substantial accounts of an 1862 crossing. "[Hewitt] experienced most of the adventures and hardships of the overland pioneer - Indian raids, terrible desert crossings, buffaloes, grizzlies, etc. Part of the end of the journey was made on the Columbia River" - Soliday. Inscribed on the front flyleaf by Hewitt (1840-1916) and his wife Ellen (1840-1922) to a cousin.
