I heard of a man going to California over the plains, and there was a
clergyman on board, and he had a great deal to say, and finally he
fell in conversation with the forty-niner, and the latter said to the
clergyman, "Do you believe that God made this world in six days?" "Yes I
do." They were then going along the Humboldt. Says he, "Don't you think
he could put in another day to advantage right around here?"
