A TRIP TO TABLE ROCK
FROM THE bROWNVILLE (nEBRASKA) aDVERTISER of september 15, 1859
This is not a reprint or from a "looking back" article. It is an article in the Nebraska Advertiser in 1859. It is signed by "A.S.B.," with the dateline of "Brownville, N.T." Brownville, Nebraska Territory. This early view of Table Rock is poetic. More importantly, this seems to be the earliest known surviving contemporary account of what the Table Rock looked like.
Read about the serpentine Muddy Creek, the squatter with prolific garden, the Little Muddy, the "delightful Long Branch," crossing a divide and then another divide, and then seeing the lights of "a distant village." Table Rock.
