Soon after Lilly was added to our household,
our next-door neighbor employed an Indian
boy to take care of his yard and stable. Juan
was a well built, good-looking Navajo boy,
who had picked up a Mexican name some
place, and who had the educational advan-
tages of two years at Albuquerque and one
year at the Phoenix school. His family had
large holdings of sheep and goats on the
Navajo reservation, and among the Indian
girls of the town Juan was held to be a most
eligible young bachelor.
