GOAT AND BEAR AT 
RIVERS INLET 
( Continued from page 48 7 ) 
ambling along. He came within fifty 
yards when Jim fired. The bear gave a 
roar and dashed into the bush. We ran 
to the place where he entered, and found 
that he had fallen about ten feet from the 
trail, with a bullet through the heart. As" 
it was getting late, we pulled it over 
towards the river bank and left it there 
for the night, deciding to return in the 
morning and get the skin, and the fat 
which we wanted for our lamps. 
We remained in this camp four days 
longer, but with the exception of a year- 
ling black bear and another deer we had 
no other success, and we left for the 
head of the lake. On the way up we 
passed the mouth of Indian River, which 
is a large creek coming down through a 
narrow valley and entering the lake 
through some flats. The mountains had 
gradually assumed a very rough appear- 
ance and some of the strata had been 
thrown and crushed so badly that it was 
standing almost perpendicularly. 
We camped at the Cheeo River which 
flows in at the head of the lake, being 
one hundred and fifty feet wide at the 
mouth. The water of the river was full 
of sediment, so fishing was out of the 
question. Cruising about, we crossed the 
river and went over some flats to a creek 
about a hundred and fifty yards away 
which was about forty feet wide. There 
was a long pool here, six or eight feet 
deep and from some of the logs lying 
across the creek we commenced to fish, 
using venison for bait. In a short time 
we had caught fifteen fish, all of good 
size, one weighing over four pounds. 
That night Jim proposed that we con- 
sider the next day a holiday, and we 
promised ourselves a real good dinner, 
a la carte. This was carried out and 
served as follows: Bean soup; fried lake 
trout; roast leg of venison with dressing; 
fried beans and dried apple pudding, 
washed down with good coffee. 
T HE next day we visited Indian River, 
and as we had a fair wind going 
down the lake, we kept well out from the 
shore, so as to come up the wind to the 
river. While going up I felt a slight 
tremour in the canoe, a signal from Jim 
that something was in sight, and on look- 
ing up the shore I saw a black wolf. It 
was digging up something at the edge of 
the lake and was in full view. 
Taking up the rifle, the lake being very 
calm, I managed to roll him over. He 
was not a large wolf, but his fur was 
beautifully marked, and his tail well 
feathered. We took him into the canoe, 
and continued to the mouth of Indian 
River which proved to be very rocky and 
shallow, and we could take the canoe 
up only a short distance. We landed and 
went into the bush, but it was so thick 
and difficult to get through we returned 
to the canoe and decided to follow the 
shore of the lake and see what could 
be had there. 
We dropped quietly down the river, 
and as we rounded a small bend we came 
upon a black bear, sitting on a wind-fall
