Q You are sure you did come back on a power boat? A Yes sir. That is, party way. I walked part way, pushed the boat party way. Q Pushed the power boat part way? A Yes sir. Q How far did you push the power boat? A Oh, probably thirty or forty feet in one place over the sandbars, until she began to get water to float, and over two rapids after that. Q How many feet over those two rapids? A Probably fifty feet each one. Q Then I will put the question this way, aside from one hundred and thirty feet, you came back the balance of the seventy or seventy- two miles, whatever it was, in a power boat? A We came back sixty- eight miles. Q You came back the balance of the sixty- eight miles in a power boat? A Yes. Q Do you know whether Mr. Marrs had ever been up that river before he took you up?
