Sunday August 10th. 1806.
The morning was somewhat cloudy I therefore apprehended
rain however it shortly after became fair. I hastened the
repairs which were necessary to the perogue and canoe which
were compleated by 2 P. M. those not engaged about this
business employed themselves as yesterday, at 4 in the evening
it clouded up and began to rain which puting a stop to the
opperation of skindressing we had nothing further to detain us,
I therefore directed the vessels to be loaded and at 5 P. M.
got under way the wind has blown very hard all day but did
not prove so much so this evening as absolutely to detain us.
we decended this evening as low nearly as the entrance of
white-Earth river and encamped on the S.W. side, the musquetoes
more than usually troublesome this evening.
