Party Wear Starvation
"After great hardship the party
reached the summit and there endur
ance failed. Mr. Rector and his wife re
turned to The Dalles and came down the
river In a bateau. It was determined by
the rest of the party to cache their
wagons and heavy materials and to
make the rest' of the Journey' by horse,
ccw or ox back. The progress through
the huckleberry swamps was from three
to six miles in 12 hours.
"At the famous Laurel hilt 'an extra
foot of snow halted the train and a horse
died from eating poison laurel. Rather
than eat dog meat,, the flesh of the pot
soned horse was tested and as the poison
had not permeated the flesh. It was used
