Show that ( he lie ) rode on the boat 1011 when it was operated with the paddle wheel . ( R . 3981 . ) Recalled ( R . , Vol . 22 , pp . 4066-4069 ) : His survey work from Lees Ferry in 1929 , ( corn- corn ) menced in July and continued to August . ( R . 4066- ( 4067 406-7 ) . ) ( "Q Q ) . Now , assume that on a certain day in August , you found the level of the river at a certain spot , and it appears that on that day the gage at Lees Ferry showed approximately MY2 feet . Now , you worked up the river from there , and ten days later you were working at a given spot , and taking a level , and on that day the gage at Lees Ferry showed 19Y2 ( feet-that feetthat ) is , a difference of 6 feet . What sort of an adjustment do you make on your profiles Compl . Exh . 10 ] ; because there is a difference in the river level of 6 feet , and if you have been working up day by day , how do you adjust that ? ( "A A ) . I think I would adjust that : ( --my my ) recollection is that we adjusted some such differences as that arbitrarily in the field . For instance , that would mean an ( abnormal abDormal ) flow , caused by a sudden flood , and I think I took out several of those arbitrarily , and in a few days the ( river-that riverthat ) is reduced to the grade or the elevation at which we were working ; say , when the gage read ( 13K 13Y2 ) feet ; in a few days it appeared that this was a period ( of -6-1 ) the river gradually falling . ( "Q Q ) . Now I note for instance that in August , , , there was one ( day-for dayfor ) instance , the 14th of ( August- August ) |
