The Land Of Flat Water (Part One)

          Its name derives from the Otoe word (That I cannot pronounce well.) Nebrathka ("Flat Water") which the french trappers translated to Platte, and the rest of us transliterated into Nebraska:

          The Platte River flows, a mile wide and an inch deep (not much of an exaggeration), through the state of Nebraska.
