Show 4774 Yundt- C 2788 Q Always got up and down? A Yes sir. Q You were naturally intent on your work while you were engaged in it, weren't you? A Yes. Q And at times you would mistake where the channel was? A I don't know, sir, whether we would mistake it or not; we traveled the river a good deal, and knew as a rule where the channel was. Q You always succeeded in getting your boat over into deeper water when it did get stuck, though, didn't you? A Yes sir, as a rule we would pull it over the bar. Q And always did succeed in getting it off the bar into deeper water? A Yes sir. Q By the way, was your camp at Lockhart right on the river? A It was right on the river, yes sir. Q Right on the bank? A Back possibly seventy- five or one hundred yards from the river itself. Q And did you survey quite a distance back inland from that camp? A About, I would imagine, ten miles. Q About ten miles. |
