May 25. 1915. Goldonda Nevada
Arrived at Goldonda in the
early morning. Made enquir
about getting to McDermitt
and about the facilities
for outfitting there. Spent
Part of day walking around
the country observing birds
etc.
on account of the higher
prices prevailing at points
in Southeastern Oregon, far
from the railroads and the
uncertainty I being able
to procure suitable help
there, I decided that it
would be best to outfit here
if suitable terms can be
made. Enginced J.E. Rembut
Co. and they recommended
a man who they thought
would go, and said I could
fly on him. He is away today
but met me as her tomorrow.
