July 8, 1905, Saturday, (Continued) 
before dinner and then r ernald and I -went eastward 
while Williams, his wife, and Miss Waring went 
westward. About 3»30 P. M. or thereabouts we 
reached the eastern end of the great headland and 
came out on top of a 50 foot cliff. Looking over 
this we discovered that a lady, and a gentleman and 
their canoe had been forced ashore by a change in 
the wind and a thundershower. Upon watching them a 
little while we realized that they had, of necessity, 
abandoned their canoejknd had started to walk westward 
in hopes of finding their way out. As we knew this 
was impossible at high tide we followed along the top 
of the cliff which continued for a long distance 
and growing higher as we walked along. Finally we 
found a place to get down by means of our Alpine 
rope. We w eni down leaving the rbpe in place and 
we caught up with them after awhile and found that 
our suspicions were corrrect as to their intentions 
of walking home. We all came back to the rope and 
with aid of this went up to the top the cliff. 
We were obliged to make a long and hard trip over 
the crests of the cliffs through the woods as the 
beaches at the base were submerged by the high tide. 
We finally reached the barn at the beach where we 
left the &eam at 8.00 P. M. and drove on to Michaud's 
over the trail on Cap 6. At Michaud's we all went 
in and got partially warm. We learned that the man 
and woman were Mr. and Mrs. Dale of Montreal. Mrs. 
Dale put on a dry skirt at Michaud's and we all drove 
home in our team which we found waiting there.
