  42. ↑ Source: #S872 Data: Text: There they finally arrived and Mr. Faulkinham set up the first house, alog hut, for miles around. This was just east of the marsh. During that first winter the father hired out for ten dollars a month while his wife and daughter remained at the cabin with two other families of relatives. Some years later when these families had increased there were fully seventeen people living in that little 16 x 24 log cabin. These early years brought all sorts of trials to the settlers at the east end of the Horicon Marsh. To get flour the father had to make a week's trip to Waukesha; to sell wheat he had to drive his oxen fifty miles through woods and over corduroy road to Milwaukee where he received forty cents a bushel for it. His capacity load was forty bushels. "I used to cry for bread,” Mrs. Record told me. "For three weeks one time we had only string beans and milk," and, she added with a slight toss of her head and a sly smile on her lips, "I haven't liked string beans since!"
