Passing on a couple of miles, we come
to the residence of Mi. Charles Cassady
He has some fine grain and is making a
fine farm where it once was heavy timber.
The next farm we shall notice is that
of Mr. John Strowhridge. He is an old
settler and has a fine farm and a large
amount of cattle. Here we saw as fine a
place for slock raising as any one needs.
Passing on we notice the elegant resi
dence of Mr. Bruno. Here we came to
the Barlow road, and we whip up as we
want to eat lunch at Alder creek. This
is as good a road as any one could ex
pect. We make good time and soon
will reach the sinal1 village of Cherry
villo. It consists of a store, poetoliice
and hotel; D. W. Parker ia mine host.
We did not get to see "Wood Rat," but
saw his residence. Passing on we
arrived at Alder creek at V:30 a. m.
Here we made camp and fed our teams
w hile the ladies of our party got dinner.
Some of cur party went out to catch the
speckelod beauties, and after fishing
about one hour returned to dinner, hav
ingaught just flfty-six One trout. After
eating a hearty dinner we proceeded on
our journey.
ilie next place we pass is the tarm ol
Mr. ,S. Ware. He has a very large barn,
large enough, we presume, to hold nil
the grain and hay between Cberryville
and Salmon River.
We soon coiue to the farm of Mr.
Melntire. He bus a very good pluee anil
raises hay as his ptkipal crop, which lie
sells to travelers at a good price; he also
has a small store iu conjunction with
his farm.
We pass on and arrive at Salmon
river bridge and stick camp near tlie
residence of Mr. Baufimin's. Here we
are and soon enjoy a first-class supper
and soon get leady for fishing. We go
down to the river and in one hours fish
ing return to camp witli ninety-eight
line trout.
Our tiarty consists of Geo. E. Ogelsby,
w ife and three children, Mr. K. Rhoades,
wife and family, and Mr. John Marshall,
the lutter being the best fisherman of
the party.
July 4th. Some rain and Oregon mist,
but we are bent on having a good time.
We are off for a fishing trip up the river
nd our party waa joined by Mr.- Walter
Strunk. After fishing np Salmon river
five' miles, we return to camp, arriving
at 2 p. m. and wet as rate. After drying
out by a rousing fire we take a look at
the grand scenery aa the lun haa come
out and ia shinning now. Here can be
seen some of tlie hnest views ot Alt
Hood we ever saw. Turning aad look
ing south great mountain peaks loom up
as far as the eye can see. To you who
think that you enjoyed a Fourth of July
better than we did we will say are
badly mistaken. We arrived home July
5th, 'at 12 o'clock noon, having had a
first-class lime, and our party caught
four hundred fine trout and our heads did J
not feel aa large as some of those who
attended the Sandy celebration.
