In our boat Ned, Edith, Mr. Gray & Ralph and in Rose's - Mrs. Rose, Ruth True, Prof. & I (rowing) It was four or five miles up to Eel creek - wind dead against us - but I didn't mind.

Ned caught a bass and Mr. Page & I snapped Kodaks and we loitered there awhile and then went on up the river - walking thro' the woods - "portaging" boats - strolling up rocks. Killing snakes ( Ralph) gathering wild garlic (Aunt Almira) & wild pears (Mrs. Rose) and fishing now & then (Ned & Edith) &c. We passed 4 Rapids & then rowed a mile or so (I trolled) & came to some wild-ish falls and got out on a big rock on a breezy hilltop to a picnic dinner - sandwiches & cold tea - lemonade - cake - blueberry pie &c. (more pictures.) Then a scrambly stroll over rocks &c. for the fun of watching Edith draw in lovely little bass & throw them back
