and 3 more were sent to endeavor to procure some fish, as the
natives take a great number of the small fish about 20 miles
distant from the fort by water. Some men were also employed

elk, almost the only game in this part of the country, are
chiefly gone to the mountains. This day continued fair
throughout.
