Excerpt from Life and Adventures of John Gaskins: In the Early History of Northwest Arkansas I was there every day, watching and wondering. The people crowded around the Basin spring (that being the only spring at first, though in a short time others were discovered) dipping up the water that poured down over the rock into the little basin, one waiting for another: I would watch for hours, wondering how it could be that I had used the water so long and now to see the crowds gathering there for the cure of all kinds of diseases. Many who were not able to walk would use the water and be able in two or three weeks to climb the mountains, at that time steep and rugged and without roads. Wagons would turn over in try ing to drive too near the springs. Once on the bench of the mountains they would take off the wheels, and let the axles rest on the ground. Then tents and afterwards houses were erected. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
