So we did not go in there at all. We saw also from a
distance, where Beaver River run out from; but we thought it was
only an island. So we still just went on and followed the map.
It was late in the evening when we got back to Donald's. Donald
and Allan would start off again in the morning to meet the two lads
and Wallace.
Monday, November 2nd.--Donald and Allan meeting Mr. Wallace, they
arrived at Donald's in the evening. Mr. Wallace then told me of
his trip after I left him; but he couldn't remember all, as he at
last lost track of every thing. He was troubled with his eyes,
being nearly smoke blind, and that he could not find the tent. He
thought he had gone past the camp. He says he did not know where
the tent was. He made Duncan a present of Mr. Hubbard's washing
rod.
Tuesday, November 3rd.--We said good-bye to Donald's, and went with
Allan and Duncan over to their place. We staid there couple of
days while Allan getting his boat ready for us to use to Northwest
River. The day after I went over there I asked Duncan M'Lean if he
could go with me this winter when I go up to get Mr. Hubbard's
body. He told me he would be willing to come along with me and
help me all he could.
