The place today: Fort Clatsop, winter quarters
natives again visited us, and brought some hats which we pur-
chased at a moderate price. The 23rd was also clear and
pleasant; but the morning of the 24th was cloudy, and at
10 o’clock it began to rain hard. About noon a number of
the natives came to the fort to trade. The rain continued
with high stormy wind; and we suffered the Indians to remain
in the fort all night.
