Immediately after the granting Of
the charter to drive the river the part
ners had offered them an opportunity
of acquiring about 30O00000 feet of
timber remaining from Morrison &
Days original holdings. Orde finally
completed the purchase on long time
notes. Below the booms they erected

At the end of the fifth year the OPP

mark agreed with him. Thus the firm
went into the carrying trade. The

compelled to look, elsewhere for its

Investigation he purchased 300,000.00O
