Fort Clatsop, winter quarters — Patrick Gass: March 3, 1806
On this day at Fort Clatsop, Sergeant Gass noted that the members of the expedition who had been ill were beginning to recover, though their improvement was slow. He attributed the gradual pace of recovery to the lack of proper or suitable nourishment available to the sick men, as the party's provisions during their winter encampment on the Pacific coast were limited and offered little in the way of restorative food for those needing to regain their strength.
sick men are getting better but slowly, as they have little or
no suitable nourishment.
