Here' thoy landed, and remalned reveral daye for tho = purposo of refitting, and also Leecause they had been advised that war with the Bloux was bvlnf waged by the Government, which rendered Jt dauerous to pass dowa the river. But they became fmpa- tient of tho ilelay st Berthold, and also were suspleious of the motives of the traders who advised thewm not to proceed, 1t was intimated to them that the traders wished them to remain Inorder that they might make mwoney out of them, thelr custoni being valuable, They launcl- ed thefr boat again, - Every man wasarmed, and 8 good marksman, A ‘small bross cunnou, called a swivel, was lxlnml in the bow of the boat.
