 the river, and evidently got into mischief, for a 

 large dog rushed them down the bank into the cur- 

 rent, and worried them all the way over, part of 

 the time swimming and part of the time leaping 

 very high, as a dog w T ill in deep snow, coming down 

 with a great splash. The cattle were shrouded with 

 spray as they ran, and altogether it was a novel 

 picture. 



My voyage ended that forenoon at Hancock, and 

 was crowned by a few idyllic days with some friends 

 in their cottage in the woods by Lake Oquaga, a 

 body of crystal water on the hills near Deposit, and 

 a haven as peaceful and perfect as voyager ever 

 came to port in.
