THE EZRA MEEKER HISTORICAL POST
CARDS FOR SCHOOLS, LIBRARIES,
THE HOME, AND COLLECTORS.
This typical suit shown in the illustra-
tion was quite common in the early fifties
on the Northwest Coast, but has long since
been discarded under the changed conditions
of life in that region.
The abundance of game, coupled with the
incentive to procure food and the love of
adventure, gave an abundant supply of the
buckskin both for clothing of the body and
for the moccasin foot-wear, so common in
pioneer days.
Difficulty was often experienced by the
pioneers in getting cloth for raiment, and
frequently the buckskin took the place of
the home-spun or the more conventional
"store goods."
