Alexander Mackenzie Voyages From Montreal

_Monday, 31._–I sat up all night to make the necessary arrangements
for the embarkation of this morning, and to prepare instructions for
M. Le Roux. We obtained some provisions here, and parted from him at
five, with fine calm weather. It soon, however, became necessary to
land on a small island, to stop the leakage of the canoe, which had been
occasioned by the shot of an arrow under the water mark, by some Indian
children. While this business was proceeding, we took the opportunity
of dressing some fish. At twelve, the wind sprang up from the
South-East, which was in the teeth of our direction, so that our
progress was greatly impeded. I had an observation, which gave
62. 15. North latitude. We landed at seven in the evening, and pitched
our tents.
