Patrick Gass · Building and occupying Fort Clatsop · Thwaites Vol. Gass 1807 First Edition
lected all the puncheons or slabs we had made and some
which we got from some Indian huts up the bay. But found
we had not enough to cover all our huts. About 10 o’clock
the weather became clear; but before night it rained as fast
as before. From this day to the 25th we had occasionally
rain and high winds, but the weather still continued warm.
On the evening of the 24th we got all our huts covered and
daubed.
