Ellis Bay Friday June 12- A fine morning and as the wind is in the j proper direction we are off for the Salt Laks. As we got out of the Bay I see that I did not get to Bear Point yesterday but only to Cape Eagle. Bear Point is probably 2 or three miles east and Poiret says there is a cliff around the point to the east. The cliffs are about 1/2 mile long. Long Point shows up well sticking out as a prominent cape. We can also plainly see South Shore of the St. Lawrence Gulf. This is the high land to the N.-W. of Cape Poiret. It does not stick out prom- inently but still there is a long hue irregular line off to the south. A low coast all the way to Duck Run. Here there is a camp and low cliffs about 10-15 foot high. We row 8 miles to Bessie River a fine place for trout. We see South West Point very well from east of Duck Run. At 10.15 we see the low falls of Little River.
