several days they stumbled INTO a Hudson Bay
post They replenished their outfits and started
again for the Stickeen. The distance was misrcpre-
sentcd and their grub began TO run short while
the end Of the journey seemed no nearer. Garland
put his short rations and kept moving on
At last they reached the Genora greatly ex-
hausted From there Garland took a steamer 10 the
Pine Creek country.
