Miracle of The Quail

I am always humbled by the sacrifices made by the pioneers and the miracles which kept them alive.  There are a number of miracles which included Quail.  Here is just one account from Mary Field Garner, the Last Leaf.

"The Suffering and Sadness of that camp I shall never forget.  It is impossible for Human Tongue to describe the cries of the hungry children for food and shelter and the groans of the sick and the dying and the sadness of others for loss of loved ones.  what a terrible night of misery.  We didn't have a light except a candle which flickered out in the wind and rain as it was carried from one place to another to care for the sick and dying.  It was here under these heart wrenching conditions that God sent a countless flock of quail.  they were so tame we could catch them in our hands."
