The sun was setting on the lads' first day in camp as the boys rested from their labor of dragging in great quantities of both dry and green wood. Their tents were of double canvas, specially prepared for cold weather, and their bedding and suits had constituted an important part of their baggage. Almost the entire fronts of the tents were composed of fine, strong silk mesh-cloth.
The faces of the boys were well anointed with grease, and masks of mesh-cloth hung about the tents ready for use. Mosquitos and an insect known as the "bull-dog" had driven many a trapper and hunter out of the swampy regions around Hudson Bay. During the summer it is almost impossible to live in the swamps of that country at all.
