The tale, exactly as it appear ed in the Kecord, is as follows: "Only one who has traveled the crumbling and dizzy trails paralleling Minam river can realise the nlmosc hopelessness of one who falls iil twen ty miles from the mouth of that stream, but that the position is not al together hopeless was related to a Re corder representative in La Grandtr Sunday evening by Herman Trippeer, former well-known young man of Cove but now the leading veterinary sur geon of Walla Walla. Trippeer, who is associated in the cattle business with Guy Dutton of this city, left point to get medical aid. His condi tion was such that Trippeer and Fore man decided that to leave him there invited death. "They went down to the forks of the Minam to where the log ging camp of the Minam Lumber com pany is located and held a consulta tion with Superintendent P. S. Robin son and employes and it was decided to make an attempt to take the sick man down tho river to the little vil lage of Minam. Cold weather had prevailed several days and it was de cided to transport Hale over the ice in a hand sled which was packed in for use at the logging camp. The next morning, January lllth, Trippeer and Foreman succeeded in getting Hale down to th camp, a distance of three miles, using a squaw, pack. At that Walla Walla January 1 for the Dut-i point he was placed on the hand sled TAKEN ILL IN MINAM COUNTRY ItKOI (HIT DOWN RIVER 20 MILES ON SLEI). How a sick man was hauled on a sled twenty miles over the frozen sur face of the upper Minam river to the town of Minam, and from thero taken . to say nothing of riding a horse twen m n nin.or car to Hot Lake, covenr trjty or twenty-five miles to the nearest ton ranch to enjoy an outing of a few days and to aid Ranger Foreman of Cove in building a bridge across the Minam river at that location. Ac companying Trippeer was L. C. Hale, a young man of Walla Walla, who had recently recovered from an illness contracted while attending W. S, C. at Pullman. The two arrived at their destination on January (ith, going in by way of Cqve. A day or two later, Hale suffered an attack of rheuma tism and -within a short time was ut terly helpless, being unable to sit up, and three men of the camp volunteer ed to make the trip to Mtnam, a dis- countered where carrying the latter had to be resorted to. They enjoyed a good rest and a lunch at Stock mart's cabin. Refreshed, they resumed the trip and pulled in at Minam at 5 o'clock that evening, tired but happy in the knowledge that they had per formed in good time the task they volunteered to do. "Awaiting Hale at Minam was El mer Fulk with an automobile, having been directed over the telephone that runs to Cove from the Minam ranger station to proceed there and meet the party. In exactly two hours af ter leaving Minam, Fulk reached the Hot Lake sanatorium, where Hale is now on the rapid road to recovery. . "In a perilous condition on the up per Minam at 7:3& a. m.
