19 May 1861 to 24 August 1861. Jacobs recovers a cached piano from Devil's Gate, Wyoming. He is part of a mock battle to celebrate the Fourth of July and describes the festivities held on the trail to celebrate. Mosquitoes chase livestock away from the camp and disrupt church services. Jacobs plays a trick on a member of another company, telling him to catch rabbits by building a fire and holding a sack for them to run into.
