Show Blake- C 943 BY THE SPECIAL MASTER: Don't they ever pole a flat boat up the stream? I didn't get it, your Honor. Don't they ever pole a flat boat up the stream on those rivers? I have never hoard of it on the Green, except possibly in some quiet stretch just where a man was out for sport; not for any great distance. BY MR. FARNSWORTH: It is your experience that you do not pole boats in any but quiet water? Do not what? Pole boats in any but quiet water. I have had no experience in poling boats, a real experience. Have you seen any poling of boats in your time? I saw one man pole a boat, or a canoe, I think it was, at the mouth if Aztec creek in Glen canyon; that is my experience. That is the only experience you have ever had with poling? Other than just pushing off from shore, or possibly pushing in to shore to land, or something like that. For about how long a period had the water been as low as it was when you made this trip down the Green river to the confluence? It had just dropped, following a flood. It had just dropped? A few days. And it was lower at that time than it had been at any time 2913 |
