April 12, 1913 
rapid water was welcome. Another day brought 
us to the Forks. Tliis period of travel from 
Indian .Pond Dam to the Forks occupied six 
days, during which time we saw no one. 
From the Forks, or the mouth of the Dead 
River, the trip was down an inclined plane, 
easy paddling with enough quick water to make 
it interesting. One day, on making a carry 
around a dam, we met a man who was a few 
points under the wind (in the dry State, of 
Maine, too), and inquired about the Bom- 
bazeen Rips, which we expected to encounter 
shortly. 
“Well.” says he, “them rips is all right, if 
you get through,” thereby showing true Maine 
wit. 
When we arrived there, the river was a 
formidable mass of white water, but, by active 
use of paddles, the canoes went through with¬ 
out shipping a drop. 
On the last .Sunday out a fair record was 
made in the amount of grub stowed away. 
Each of us ate: One half-loaf of bread, six po¬ 
tatoes, four and a half ears of corn, one cucum¬ 
ber, one pound of stewed beef and two cups of 
coffee. 
Barring seven dams to carry around, the 
remainder of the trip was easy work. On the 
last night out we built a big camp-fire and 
roasted peanuts, then proceeded to finish our 
ten-thousand point Irish pinochle tournament, 
the object being to avoid getting points, as the 
first man out lost and has to pay for a dinner 
when all meet in New York again. 
We were seventy-four days from New 
York, with an average of thirteen miles per day, 
the best day’s paddle being on the St. Lawrence 
with fifty-nine miles. Forty-two camps were 
made. The total cost, including outfit, was 
two hundred and forty nine dollars. 
To say that we had enjoyed ourselves be¬ 
littles the trip, but we were glad to see Bath 
loom up with a hearty welcome and a bounti¬ 
ful table.
