    Notes 
    • Things were not easy for Prudence the first years after arriving at the log cabin. She was a very courageous pioneer woman. The Indians really pestered her and there were many of them living near the cabin. Every time taht she baked bread, the Pottowatomies whose sense of smell was keen, would come in flocks to get a handout as soon as the bread was taken out of the oven. They also liked cooked meat of chickens and enjoyed running down the biggest and the fattest of the flock. Many wore the Indian artifacts the Padelford family collected in those early days and throughout the years.
