William Clark Ecola Creek, Tillamook Head, Oregon Thwaites Vol. 3, pp. 310-315

Monday 6th of January 1806. The last evening Shabono and his Indian woman was very impatient to be permitted to go with me, and was therefore indulged; She observed that She had traveled a long way with us to See the great waters, and that now that monstrous fish was also to be Seen, She thought it verry hard that She could not be permitted to See either (She had never yet been to the Ocian). after an early brackfast I Set out with two Canoes down the Netel R into Meriwether Bay with a view to proced on to the Clatsop town, and hire a guide to conduct me through.
