FORT GIBSON

 When Fort Gibson was occupied by soldiers they sometimes found it hard to entertain themselves, they would go and get Sam PERRYMAN, a Creek one-hundred and thirty years of age, with one of the Government wagons. He would tell them stories, etc., and when they took him home, they would put a lot of groceries in the wagon for him.  Perryman lived across the Arkansas River.
