Judge Knowles was on his way to the
Top of Deep, just over the mountain
south of Reynolds City, where a
friend of his had some mining
claims.
These diggings were of much more
permanent character than those on
Elk creek, and after the mines in the
latter were exhausted the Top of
Deep was very prosperous for a num-
Der of years.
A few miles below this was situated
the town of Bear, in what a called
Bear gulch. This was also a lively
place, and quite prosperous for sew
eral years afterward. Mr.. Abascal,
had established a store there. James
A. Talbot, a resident at that place.
Like most of the mining camps, it
raj very lively, with all sorts of en-
terainments, some of them of rather
a questionable character. In one sa-
loon the violinist had posted a no
tice, Don't shoot the fiddler; he'll
do the best he can" 1t was here
also that l first met our esteemed
fellow pioneer, Colonel Morse.
The nearest properly organized
burial grounds at that time were sit
uated near the town of Deer Lodge.
In thosedays, with limited transpor-
tation facilities, a funeral involved a
matter of considerable expense, and
it was generally stated that a Bear
town funeral was worth about $1,000
to Deer Lodge.

AS the summer months were pass

Elk creek and mining activities prac-

stock of goods that | had left to Bear

place, of which my brother, Joseph

ial companions, James Hornbuckle
and Charles Ducheneau, we started
out horseback, going by way of Wor-
den's Mill, which was then a small
village where the beautiful city of
Missoula now stands.
Worden and Higgins had a store
there, and Jack Demers, a Canadian
F~renchman, had also a small store
at Frenchtown, about 10 miles below.
The old Mullan road, as it was called,
which vas established by the United
States government, and partially con
structed under the direction of Lieu
tenant Mullan of the United States
army, was laid out from Fort Ben

ton of this road was begun in 1856.
but was interrupted by trouble with
the Indians.
In 1859 work was resumed on that
part of the road in western Montana
over the Occur d'Alene mountains,
northwesterly from Missoula. The
construction of this road from the
Missoula river up the st. Regis river
to the summit of the range was very
difficult as the river was very tor
tuous, and there were over 40 cross
ings requiring bridges. The trail, as
found 1t, was still more tortuous
and difficult by reason of the fallen
timber. Near the summit, on the
slope of the mountains, he trail pass
ed by the winter camp of Lieutenant
Mullan, where we saw the stamps
of the trees still standing about 80
feet high, indicating the depth of
the snow at that time. This road
had never served any practical pur-
pose and was finally abandoned en-
