It was at this Juncture that Daugh-
erty expressed his desire to kill Ited
lleld' dog, a collie, declaring that

The four flnully eluded the war party

"We walked all nlgljt without wa-

morning thought that we might Hud

over when his owner severed the
veins, Itedlleld distinctly remem
bered. Tho travelers' tongues woro so
swollen that they were unable to eat
tlio dog's meat, hut Itedlleld carried
strips of It In hla pockets and chawed
thorn raw nt Intervals during tho next
two days.
"Wo kept a westerly courso and
traveled all night," Hedtlold said.
"In tho morning, IourIi, wiry graBs

Wo sucked tho moisture from tho

wake up thirsty, take n drink of that
delicious water, and doze off again.
Tlm. others wcro doing It too,
"Tliu next day wo searched for the
outlet of the lako, and found It, but
It wan not in tliu direction we wished
to go. On the day following we left
tho luke."
It was on the same day that tho
travelers left tho lak5 that tboy
reached Crane prairie, according to
Kodflold. Tho distance, and tbc
weakened condition of tho men
makes it seem more probable that it
was I'aullna prairie, especially a
Itedlleld says that his only reason for
calling il (.'ratio prairie was becauso;
of tliu presence of it' number of largo
white cranes. It was after crossing
tlio Deschutes on a raft that Andrews
uliot a grouse. It was tho first food
thut tho travelers had had In live,
days.
"And by the way," Interjected the
old pioneer uh ho told of hi experi
ences, "the next time you read of
someone going on a hunger strike,
don't wustu any sympathy on him,
Vou don't suffer from lack of food If
you have plenty of water. It was
thirst that caused our suffering.
"The next day wo shot a shipmunk.
It was our entire ration for thai day.
Wo scorched off the hair and ate all
thu rest of thu animal. Another ship
munk came our way on tho day fol
lowing, and wu ato him. Uy this
lime Andrews was so weak that ho
wus unable to carry his Run and
blanket farther. Ho left them, rest
ing the barrel of his gun against a
sapling. Thlrly-flve years later a
Canadian und n mun named Taylor
found the Run Just where he hud left
it, but tho tree hud encased tho bar
rel. "Next morning I took the lead. I
was the only olio who still carried his
gun and blankets. It was on the
tenth day slnco leaving tho Indian
country that wo sighted a deer, and I
Rave Daugherty. the best shot In the
parly, my gun. Ho missed, hater lu
tha dny ho missed another deer,
(Ireen blackberries were our only
food thut day. I remember that
hornets stung Clark badly, and bo
cried llko u baby."
Tho parly laid in an abundant sup
ply of meat tho next day I when Ited
lleld killed a two year old steer at tho
mouth of tho south fork of thu Mc-
Kcnzle. Just after he had shot tho
aulmal, a man named Carter, who
updated a ferry on tho McKenzio,
culled to lilm. Carter was the first
white man tho members of the party
hud seen lu 20 days.
Itedlleld recalled that ho and his
companions wore so famished that
they did not wait to cook any of the
meat, but ato the steer's liver raw.
From tho south fork of tho Mc
Kenzio their march to Eugeno was
only about GO miles, and In compari
son with tlio earlier part ot tho Jour
ney it was fairly easy, although thero
wero still muiiy dltllcultlcs to be sur

Itedlleld resided In Albany until
1872, oponlng the first grocery store
