our small canoes could not bear the sail. Some of the party
caught some beaver, and some Frenchmen who were out trap-
ping caught 7 of them. We passed a large creek on the South
side, called Onion creek. We came 23 miles and encamped
on the North side, where we found a wild goose nest on a tree
about 60 feet high. One of the men climbed the tree and
found one egg in the nest.
