Later. in October. the ascent was again
made in force, the difficulties. as before
increasing as the journey neared It's end.
From this time on" says Professor Eai-
ley, "it was a constant struggle to keep
all the loads in motion. The work was
exceedingly hard for the drivers and In
dams Each man carried some 'nstrumen mt
or package in addition to leading mule.
The loads, though not especially heavy,
were extremely awkward in sr ape, and
were in constant need of reimbursement.
In the more difficult places IT was neces-
sary for one man to lead and another to
walk behind and steady each mule.
About the middle of the route the men
announced that they could go no further
that day. that men and animals were eX-
hausted. Two strong and opposite infiu-
ences were powerfully at work with them
On the one hand II the station were es-
tablished that day their engagement was
nearly over, while II abandoned here. they
would be needed for another expedition.
This, together with their physical condi-
ton. inclined them to refuse to proceed
Fortunately this. situation was not uneX-
pected. and had been guarded by coun
ter-iIfuencc Calisaya, the mule owner
and Francisco our regular driver, had
each been promised ten soles extra when
the station was fact. II they obeyed or
ders implicitly. Each OF the six Indians
who had assembled previously had been
promised five soles on the same condi-
lions. The others also hoped for an extra
fee. For these men, who generally earn
about so cents per day, this was a consid-
cradle sum. This they were now informed
would be forfeited il they stopped with
out permission. | was not open to per-
suasion. Coaxing complaining, and swear
ing were alike ineffective.
After a lunch and plenty of stimulant
in the form of ''pisco." to which the men
are accustomed. and without which they
would not work at this altitude they CON
cluded to proceed. and the loads having
been rearranged, in order to partially re-
lleye one nearly exhausted mule, we ad-
vanced. Several of the men, including
Calisaya. had not assembled the mountain
before. This proved an advantage: for
during the last two hours, misled by the
appearances, they thought each moment
that the summit was just ahead. We
reached the cross at $50 D. IN. Here the
men rested for half an hour and took
lunch. 1t was arranged that H. c. Bailey
should give his special attention TO max
ing views of the craters and surround
ings He had been suffering for the last
two hours from mountain sickness but
went to work promptly and attended to
it persistently until he had exposed all
the plates We had brought. when he be-
came completely exhausted"
1t is probable that no such difficulties
were ever met and overcome before In the
pursuit of meteorological investigation.
