Show 6996 Fotheringham- D 4984 Q He came back up, did he? A yes; but we didn't want to move on account of the water, high water. Q Had the high water come by that time? A Yes; he insisted on moving, so we went on down, and we couldn't pull in this place we wanted to work. Q Go ahead. A We couldn't pull the boat in; it was too large and too bulky and heavy, couldn't pull it in, so we kept right on going, and we went a few miles above Lees Ferry; never could get the boat back up no more. THE SPECIAL MASTER: Will you read that answer? ( Last answer read.) BY MR. FARNSWORTH: Q How long did you stay at the place where you did get your boat to shore there? A How long the last time we moved? Q After you got your boat to shore there, above Less Ferry, somewhere, after you finally got it out, what did you do? A We just naturally beat it. Q The high water was still on? A Yes. |
