Q But you have put in some indication there, by your legend, that it was one rapids all the way through. A Yes, sir. Q Now, you do not know whether there was one rapids all the way through or not.

Mr. Farnsworth: Well, I think he is going into the realm of very wild speculation in marking those thins up like that, of course, it is obvious that that can not possibly show, as to a given stretch of a quarter of a mile, whether that is still water; there might be a different elevation some dis-tance up the canyon and some distance below. The Witness: These ( indicating on map) are the eleva-tions of that river between Mile 204 and Mile 205, as shown on Sheet T, the profile accompanying that plan, which shown that at Mile 204 the elevation was 3,765 feet, and it shown that at Mile 205 the elevation was 3,790 feet.
