'. Bald: V ..;.- . '; -.'.
"The worst stretch, of road we encoun-
tered was a toll road, two miles In
length, on the Oregon side of the Biskl
vmi summit. Next to this the , worst
road traveled was In the Pitt river coun
try, wher a stretch of about 40 miles
of bare rock wore the tires down and
was very rough oh-the auto. At Sis-
son we rot lost on a iuiu oer roaa lu
wandered 60 miles out of the direct
road. There were many crossroads and
we could not tell which -was the tight
one In the dark. Another thing that de
layed us was a strong neaa wind en-
countered the. entire length of the Sac
ramento valley, -wa tnen wastea quite
a while In each town waking people up
so as to secure directions. We reached
Hornbrook at I o'clock and were there
half an hour before we succeeded In
waking the station agent Many roads
wera deep with mud and none were In
rery good shape. I am satisfied we
could make the trip a second time with
in the original schedule. The odometer
records 490 miles, showing that in ex
cess of (0 miles was lost over wrong
roads." - - - : ;:
