Hoopes Friends, Seth Kinman set out into the wilderness not to build an empire, but to hunt and to find some release for his wild, romantic spirit. His desire for adventure evolved from his contact with nature that had developed in him expressions of brutality, viciousness, cunning and good humor. Farming, ranching or prospecting was not what Seth Kinman wanted so he packed and headed for the country of grizzly, elk and savage Indians. His fame and far out yarns spread through the country so fast, four Presidents invited the buckskin clad pioneer to Washington. so cautious was this frontiersman, he wouldn’t trust an Indian, lest he was dead. Here is the rest of the story. Please read this. This is an overlooked story I found in an unusual and different magazine.. There were many a western story published – the common ones about Cowboys and Indians are listed on Ebay every day but the rarer ones about pioneers are seldom found. Collectors treasure them and their price guide value rises every day. They are hard to find. I hunt them out because really the better, untold and rarer stories were published in the rest. Here’s one of ‘em. Following my retirement, I have dedicated my remaining hours to indexing the Genealogy of our western heroes. During my research, I discovered that thousands of our kinfolk lay unfound and unrecognized on some book dealer’s shelf gathering dust. Because Old Western History and Memorabilia was printed before computer indexing, I index every item I sell. This complete index will be bound and included in this offering at no additional cost. Humbly, I am trying to keep our history alive. I hope you appreciate the effort. KINMAN’S ELK HORN THRONE By: Chad L.
