Q Did you find that these markings that you had made coming down were of any value to you? A Not always; we got stuck going up on places we came over coming down. Q When you reached Moab, what did you do with your boat? A It stayed there at the dock for a while, then at the end of the season, some time in September,-- can't recall the exact date,-- or early, October, it was taken over to Greenriver, and two of the boys who had been working under me in the pie- shaped area, took the boat and came from Greenriver around to Moab; that was Mr. McKnight and Mr. Nye. BY THE SPECIAL MASTER: Q That was in 1928? A 1926. Q You came around the same year? A The same year, yes. Q You haven't given the month you took this trip. A August 4th to 10th, 1926. BY MR.
