Smith wandered away from a grad- ing camp where he was employed and Jost his way in the woeds. He said he thought it a joke at first, until he passed nearly all one day trying to find a small ereek he knew ran through the woods toward the grading camp. He believes he fyalked in circles until dark, finding neither the ereek nor av opening from the Woods. 1 o SREIRRIE SR AR { Dreams of Fire; Jumps.
