 1t was while attempting to work up through one of these gorges against the current and between d number of rocks that the barge of the expedition came to grief.
 The oarsmen were not able to stem the flow of the river which was swift CT than usual on account of the re- cent rains, and their barge swung around broadside on to the rocks and was then swept down upon them. When the heavy raft struck the rocks 1t was practically split in two and the entire cargo, including the pas- sengers, was dumped into tn steeam.
