felt rather sad. Finally we heard the steamer, the Moshers came rowing around the point with Carrie Gould to go too, and when the "Mazeppa" landed, right there at St. Helena rocks - it simply poured - so we had rather a weepy goodbye. I was sorry that it had to be raining and cold all down thro' the lovely island groups. We took an inside channel. Very beautiful, even in the rain. The surveyor's camp looked so different - all shops and dredges and things. "Billy" Sing isn't there this summer, but somewhere up Manitoba-way! We made a quick trip down to Depot Harbor (and a cold one) ate lunch & Carrie Gould's candies & talked to Mrs. Harry Oldfield &c. Arrived at Parry Sound actually in time to catch the "Majestic"! (tho' she's due to leave at 6:30 and we to arrive at 8:30!) And found a stateroom on her, so left Carrie Gould there - to take the "Toronto" to Penetang in the morning. We even had to climb thro' the "Majestic" to get out of the "Mazeppe". We went to bed as soon as we could (couldn't get any more supper) and would have gone right to sleep except for an active "song service" (Moody & Sankey) outside in the big cabin.
