4 CRITICAL MOMENT.

Opposite our camp the wall was high
and vertical. The river running to the
south for mile and half turns back
upon itself, and the two stretches of
river, the first south, the second north,
are separated by wall in many places
but ten to twenty feet wide and 800 feet
high, and, on the east, everywhere YER
teal or overhanging. I wished to climb
this wall for the purpose of measuring
its altitude, SO one day Brady and [
took the little-boat and pulled up stream
as far as possible, in order to reach
place where the wall was so broken that
it seemed practical TO climb it. We
landed on q little talus of rocks at the
foot of the wall, but found that we must
go still further up the river; SO we
scrambled on until we reached a place
where the river sweeps against the wall.
Here we found a shelf along which we
could pass, and then were ready for the
climb. We started up a gulch, then
passed to the left, on a bench along the
wall; then up again, over broken rocks );
then we reached more benches, along
which we worked until we found
more broken rocks and crevices, by
which we climbed still up, until we had
assembled six or eight hundred feet.
Here we were met by sheer precipice.
Looking about we found place
where it seemed possible to climb. [
went ahead, Brady handed the Baron
eter to me and followed; SO we procee-
ded stage by stage until we were nearly
to the summit Here, by making a
spring, [ gained foothoid in a little
crevice and grasped an angle Of the rock
overhead. [ found [ could get up no
further, and could not step back, for I
dared not let go with my hand, and
could not reach foothold below without !;
so called to Brady for help. He
found way by which he could get to
the top of the rock over my head, but
could not reach me- He looked around
for some stick or limb OF a tree, but
found none. Then he suggested that
he had better help me with the barome-
ter case, but [ feared [ could not hold
on to it. The moment was critical. [
was standing on my toes, and my mus
Giles began to tremble. 1t was sixty,,or
eighty feet to the foot of the precipice.
If lost my hold [ should fall to the
bottom, and then perhaps roll over the
bench and still further down the cliff.
At that instant it occurred tie Bradley to
take off his drawers, which he did, and
swung them down to me. I Rugged
close TO the rock, let 90 with my hand,
sliced the dangling legs, and, with his
assistance, was enabled to gain the top
