Show Baldwin- C 1195 A Yes. Q And you got your boat back up to Moab, did you? A Yes sir. Q How long did you leave your boat there, wherever it struck this ice clog, in 1926, before you attempted to get it out? A We got it out that evening, took it back down to Frank Shafer Well No. 1, tied it up there; each day we would come up to the gorge and work on it and go back at night. Q You were working on that gorge, trying to break a channel through, for a week, you say, or ten days? A We first took our boat back to this camp, and then we walked to town, talked it over with the boss to see what was best to do, and brought some dynamite down on the passenger boat to the gorge. Q How long a delay was there before you brought the dynamite down? A Had to go to Grand Junction to get the powder; probably a few days before we got it back to the gorge. Q Did you get the powder from Grand Junction delivered at Moab within two days after you ordered it? A We sent a truck right over after it. Q You sent a truck right over after it? A Yes sir. Q You got it there within two days after the truck left? A Something like that, I think it was. 3167 |
