Show 4002 Kane- D 2022 A Along the Grand Canyon proper, in Northern Arizona. Q What I was trying to get at, after the Best expedition terminated there at Lees Ferry, then were you ever after that time back in the Green river or the Colorado river? A No, except to cross it at Green river or the railroad; that is the last time I have ever seen it. Q Both the second Stanton expedition and the Best expedition, did you carry life preservers as part of your equipment? A Always, on the water. BY THE SPECIAL MASTER: Q Did you wear them? A We wore them on the river; always on the river while we were traveling. Q Through Glen canyon as well as through Cataract canyon? A Yes. BY MR. BLACKMAR: Q Mr. Kane, when you were in Glen canyon on the second expedition, second Stanton expedition, you testified about meeting three men from Omaha, and Cass Hite and his brother; did you meet any other prospectors in there at that time? A There were several; I suppose we saw as many as twenty men at Hite, and on the bars below there were men we didn't see; we could hear them; we could see their camps. |
