from which Mr.. Astor chose some of

West Company. The men with 'Mc"
prefixed to their names-as Mckay,
McDougall, McKenzie-were Of High

follow these Canadians to the ruling
power of their own organization. We
will follow Mr., Franchere's party. us
ing his inimitahle narrative, from
Fort George, or Astoria to the place
and the tactics that furnished per-
manent food supply There is one
point that l press upon the attention
of my readers. It is that the great
majority of the ruling class of the
North West Company in the field
service were either Scotch by birth
or descent, and largely Highlanders.
From the time of the break up of
clans by the military order against
the McDonalds, there was time for
resolute men to place themselves in
a chosen line of effort, and to that
influence l ascribe the large proper
tion of Highland Scots named in the
Canadian Northwest Company. Aft
er Prince Rupert's Colony was form
ed, Mckenzie a trader whose cache
had been found and looted at the
mouth Of the stream now called for
him, spent May, 1914, collecting sal

hogan ate the flesh of ninety dogs
during the winter of 1912. Messrs.
Wallace and Halsey formed winter
camps in the Willamette valley to re-
lieve the stringency for food at AS
toria, and even then Mr.. Franchere
was detailed to fish for sturgeon in
the Columbia river, and mentions the
relief so obtained from such contri-
buttons as apparently preventing the
agonies of death by starvation.
The overland arrival Of Wilson p.
Hunt conduced to make Astoria the
gathering point of the needy west OF
the Rocky mountains, and of the up
casts Of the Pacific ocean, though the
debris from the various posts and
parties of Canadian North Westers
seem to have caused accessions to
the number fed at Astoria The sick
with scurvy were sent to Franchere's
camp, Franchere notes under date
March 20 that Reed and Seaton led
a starving band from Astoria to the
hunting camps of Wallace and Halsey
on the Willamette, and returned to
Astoria with a supply Of dried ven

company was now filled with men of

the most capable man they had to
supervise the field service of the ore
