" implies" says the Enterprise Of Mu'

had journeyed through the for
est. His equipment was sim
~ pie in the extreme. Attached to
a heavy leather belt Of cartridges hung
two pound ak and sheath knife. In
his pocket reposed compass, an air
tight tin of matches and map drawn
on oiled paper of district divided into
sections. Some few of the sections
were colored, which indicated that they
belonged to private parties All the
rest was state or government land He
carried in his hand a repeating rifle.
The pack, if opened, would have been
found to contain a wooden and rubber
blanket, fishing tackle, twenty pounds
or so of flour, package Of tea, sugar,
slab of bacon carefully wrapped in
oiled cloth, salt, suit of underwear
and several extra pairs of thick stock
ings. To the outside of the pack had
been strapped frying pan, tin pail
and cup.
He had not met human being or
seen any indications Of man excepting
always the old blaze of the govern
ment survey. Many years before, Off
| Gals had run careless lines through
the country along the section bound
aries. These latter stated always the
section, the township and the range
east or west by number. All Thorpe
had to do was to find the same figures
on his map. He knew just where he
was.
The map he had procured at the
United States land Office in Detroit.
He had set out for the purpose of

the northern peninsula which at the
time was practically untouched. Ac-
cess to the interior could only be OBJ
tanned on foot or by river. The South
Shore railroad had as yet penetrated
only as far as Seney. Marquette, Me-
nominee and few smaller places
along the coast were numbering near at
home, but they shipped entirely by
water.
Thorpe, with the farsightedness of
the pioneer, had perceived that the ex.
ploitation Of the upper country was an
affair Of few years only. The north
would not prove as accessible as it
now seemed, for the carrying trade
would some day realize that the en-
tire waterway Of the great lakes of,
fered an unrivaled outlet. With that
discovery would begin a rush to the
new country. He resolved to antici-
pate it and by acquiring his holdings

ed that way to obtain the best.
He was without money and practi-
cally without friends, while govern
ment and state lands cost respectively
$3.50 and $1.25 an acre, cash down.
But he relied on the good sense of can
italists to perceive from the statistics
which his explorations would furnish
the wonderful advantages of logging
q new country with the chain of great
lakes as shipping outlet at it's very
door. In return for his information
he would expect half interest in the
enterprise.
Thorpe was by no means the first to
