of the trip as follows: -
"Our machines were shipped to The
Dalles and from there we started out
on the road known t as Rattlesnake
Grade, drove slowly and arrived at Shan-
iko aoout e ociock m -me evening;.
Throughout the day there, were several
thunder showers which impeded - our
progress somewhat. - The hotel at Shan
lko was crowded,' and1 a fire broke out
In It while we were there. This was
extir'ptished, however, before It had done
any amage. ' ' ,
"In the morning; when we left Bhan
lko it 'was rather cool and windy. The
roads were fair,, with some rocky spots
and one slippery grade. ;, We arrived
at Prlnevllle about ZAO p. m., and on
account of the cold, decided to' remain
there Instead-of going on that after
noon to Bend, a distance of 35 miles.
"When we finally started On again
the next morning the weather was fine
and the air was as clear as It could1 be.
The scenery, lnclv.ding" many snow
peaks In the distance, was grand. The
lORds, however, were rocky and rough.
Along1 the road we saw several coyotes.

"Arriving at Bend about noon, " we
stopped at the Pilot' Butte Innj-where
the accommodation were fairly good.
In the afterncon. we spent considerable
time fishing along the Deschutes river,
and then . lingered in the vicinity of
Bend for a day . till a spell of bad
weather had papsed over. ' ,
"Proceeding Again earlr In the morn
