- May 20 -
Mr. Littlejohn, Mr. Stephens and
Al. Hasselborg went over west and south
of the harbor to look for bear signs.
They found only a few old ones and
a deserted beaver meadow. I staid
in camp and put up the beaver.

Al. Hasselborg and I got up at 3 o'clock
this morning, got Breakfast and
started out for some lakes about
4 or 5 miles inland. We got to the
lake about 6 o'clock and found an
old Indian canoe that had not
been used for some three years.
Out the lake we saw a pair of loons
several pair of geese and several
male mallards. I saw about
12 bluejay about the lake and
heard 4 or 5 woodpeckers. While we
were looking for a goose nest a
deer came up within about 100 yards
and looked at us. We found several
beaver lrones and I shot one
while he was swimming.
