Us l'oppermine Raver, two pietas of weed, the owe oak

bt be a ataartieon, in the upper end of which there had been
a hole, ti.rough which a chain had evidently passed. The
wow on 91if side of the hole had been tees away, as if by

started in company with eight persons fur Red River
Colony, and arrived there on the 10th Jsnuuy, having

of detentions at the trading poets.
Raving several arrangements to make, I did not leave
Red River until the 31st January, and in 10 days after-
wards arrived at Crow Island, being the quickest journey
ever made to that place from the colony. There beim(
little mi.r farther south, my men and dogs were sent beck
