it and break it. We were all busy
for about five minutes, but everybody
worked and we brought him to gait.
a fine specimen of "Namaycush."
Having no scale with us, we guessed
his weight at five pounds. Alice said
she thought it would weigh at least
twenty. We did so we'll with that
one, that we had three more before
dark, and had fried trout for break
fast.
We were plenty tired when we went
to bed on Balsam boughs, and Bill
says, bob be sure to get us out
early tomorrow morning" I had no
trouble waking up Doc, for he claimed
there was a rock about six inches
high crosswise of his bed that the
boughs had failed to conceal and this
had to be remedied or there would
be trouble in the camp.
After eating a breakfast of fried
trout Docs wrath was somewhat ap-
peased, and he, Selma and Bill, went
out and gathered in three more nice
ones. Could have gotten more, as
they were biting good, but we had
all we needed for our own use, and
figured they might not keep till We'd
nesday, as that was the time set for
us to start home, as the weather was
quite warm, and this was Monday.

the folks. 1 was awake at four a. m
but it was raining, not hard, but just
slowly and the folks were all sleeping
soundly, so made no noise till day

one had fish to take home, and among
the lot was one that would weigh
around ten pounds.

and now the question was, could We
get out of there with only one trip
OF course our commissary hat
dwindled somewhat. Bill says VIZ
will try it. So everything was loaded
in the canoe, and we all got in, ant
still the top was above water. There
was no wind to kick up any rough
water, and we made it back to Ching
wauk resort without mishap. W.
loaded everything in and on the ca

would make the trip again next year
