Yes! Isn't it a great story? I believe that they daughter mentioned in this article was Jane Garland Steeves. She was born in 1802 and died 1901, making her 99 years of age. My grandmother, Ruby Garland Mills who is 94, remembers hearing different variations of this story as a child. We found this article at archives.
