burg. Your scribe remembers pile of
hemlock gunnels put in at Maple Creek
that were 20 feet in length. Those for the
bow Of the boat were between three and
four feet across at the largest end. They
had been hewed down to ii inches in
thickness. What was hewed off was left
in the woods to rot or burn. 1t looks at

fold the gunnels were counter-hewed to
10 inches. The plank were l2-inch hem
lock or ll-inch pine, good, strong meas
ure, and were fastened to the streamers
with wooden pins. bodybuilding was
quite bore in those days. But those
were the times when bodybuilding was a
science and an art, and when boats were
boats. The rule on the boat-scaffold in
those times was from daylight to dark.
There is story told of an old boat
er of those days who was a devOut Meth
odist and always had morning prayers
with his men. His custom was TO have
worship before break fast. But as the
bleohldSt hOuI uid uot OoHie uuIli a
couple hours work had been done on
the scatfold the boys would be quite hun

long chapter he always read and an
equally long prayer that followed better
if the break fast had been at the other end
of their mornings devotions. Still twas
considerable to find man who willing
ly took the time for himself and for his
men to remember God and desire his
food, God bless him TRAMP.
