Show Baldwin- D 1175 going down mile by mile. The boat ran, with all these difficulties that he has described, it apparently ran for so many months in so many years. I don't know as we gain very much by describing it mile by mile. MR. BLACKMAR: I think I need that in connection with something that will follow later. THE SPECIAL MASTER: All right. BY MR. BLACKMAR: Q In and about Mile 52 and 53, do you get any crossing of the current there? A No trouble there except once the ice jammed there, January, 1926. Q Between Mile 50 and Mile 49 do you get any difficulties in there? A That is near the well, is it? Q Yes. A Sharp bend there in the river, with a rock in the middle or it, bothers et low water to avoid striking it. Q Between Mile 48 and Mile 43, do you any difficulties in there? A Yes, especially between Mile 43 and 44. Q What difficulties do you get between Mile 43 and 44>? A Because that is where I was stuck that day and a half. Q What was the nature of the channel in there? A At least three to four channels there. 3147 |
