[edit] Opinions of those in the Donner Party

Let's stop the edit wars. Nothing in the cited reference says anything about "letting anyone down". Either find another reference, or rephrase what you're saying. Jinian 23:02, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

Please reexamine the cited source -- "let them down" is a direct quote: "Although a severe blizzard may have given him an excuse... , the Donner Party survivors and rescuers who suffered through the storm without food or shelter remembered him as a braggart who let them down."
