Show 51 6237 4229 Ross- D A Yes sir. Q And what did you have to do with that boat, Mr. Ross? A Well, I built the awning on the top, for one thing, and made a pilot wheel for it, and rigged up rudders; I am not sure that I installed the engine in there, I can't remember. Q Did you make any trips on that boat? A Up the Green river the first trip from Wimmer's ranch. Q Did you have any difficulty getting up to Greenriver? A The first trip we didn't go all the way to Green-river. Q How far did you go? A Possibly half way up, then we broke our paddle wheel shaft. Q Then did you repair it? A We had to tie up there and send away for repairs; Mr. Wimmer sent away to get the repairs for it. Q Then did you repair it? A Sir? Q Then did you go down and repair it? A Afterwards, yes, we took the boat down to his ranch |
