(Abt 1884 - 1971)

Excerpted from "Art Saylor's Experiences in Early Days", by Art Saylor, as found
in "Garfield County-the Golden Years, p425-427.

I was about 16 when I first came to Montana. My dad had a ranch in Cascade
County, right up against the mountain.

Art returned to Mankata, Minnesota for a time where his mother was and attended
school.

After my brother Ed, came home from the Philippine Islands at the end of the
Spanish-American War, Ed and I headed west again, this was at the turn of the
Century. We worked for our Dad for two years and then we went down the
Yellowstone River looking for open range country.

Ed and Art ranched until 1954, when the ranch was sold to Ed's son Irven. He
then moved to California, where he made his home with his sister.
