- Started Off From Williams Harbor Early This
Morning 6 A.M., And Came To Mr. George Wakeham's At Fox Harbor
About 10 A.M., 25 Miles.
Cannot get across the bay and the people
tell us that we cannot go round by dog team, on account of a river
near Cape Charles.
So we have to wait here till the ice moves out.
Only 6 miles from Battle Harbor. We stay here at Mr. Wakeham's.
The people all along on our trip has been good to us as they could.
We had only to go by Dr. Macpherson's letter, and at every place
they were always ready to help us, because when the Dr. has passed
he told them about us coming along the coast, and they were always
looking out for us. The people all along the coast has heard of my
finding the things on my trip in the bush. One would tell the
other, "This is the man we heard of, when he found everything he
dug for in the snow this winter."
Thursday, May 12th. - About noon a little boat came from Battle
Harbor to Fox Harbor. The Dr. had heard that we were at Fox
Harbor, and right away sent a little boat with five men to help us,
and telling us about a steamer at Cape Charles. She will be
starting for Newfoundland may be in the morning. Wallace and I
were more than glad, and started right away from Fox Harbor. We
were there eight days at Fox Harbor.
