REACH THE COMMISSION CAMP. 299 
- 
following day men and mules arrive safely. 5o 
ended my journey through the wilder part of 
Oregon, having accomplished a hazardous, wea- 
risome journey, making my way a distance of 
several hundred miles without any trails, or, 1f 
any, simply trails used by Indians to reach their 
hunting or fishing-grounds; sleeping during the 
whole time in the open air, a saddle my only 
pillow. Apart from the anxiety, harass, and want 
of rest, and the necessity of guarding against the 
hostile Klamaths, to save the mules and our 
scalps, we all enjoyed the journey thoroughly, 
not even a cold resulting from the exposure.
