The autumn of 1854 Captain Grant passed with theDents, then living on Walnut Street, St. Louis. Thecolonel, however, remained in charge of his farm and ne-groes at Gravois, where, before winter, his family and hisson-in-law joined him. Here Grant remained four years,residing alternately in Whitehaven, the old family man-sion, at Wishtonwish, a pleasant little cottage erected byhis brother-in-law Lewis Dent, and at Hardscrabble, a loghouse which he himself had built. The Whitehaven farmis cut in twain by Gravois (rocky bed) Creek, from whichthe neighborhood takes its name. The long, low, spacioushomestead, with its great stone chimneys at either end, itswide and hospitable porch, its whitewashed negro-quartersin the rear, and its barns of logs and stone, looks out fromamong tall locust and spruce trees upon broad, green mead-ows, sunny orchards, and sober woods.
