Not a nibble. Too cold or something. Camped in lee of trees. Boys had feed of blue berries while I fished. Ate half stick of erbswurst. Good camp- fire, but I rather blue and no one talkative. So hungry for home and fish. Friday, October 2nd. Cold west wind. Temp. 30 degrees. Cold snowed a bit in the evening. Took packs early in day and hurried across to tamarack pole fishing place.

No, my friend, the life of an artist is the life of a martyr."
'Oh, never mind; I'll tell you after. Both kept their voices low, as if afraid of being overheard in the next room.

"An isle with forests still virgin!" repeated the crier, "with prairies, hills, watercourses " "Warranted?" asked a Frenchman, who seemed rather inclined to nibble.
