I will start to-day by canoe with an Indian.

It will take me ten days to cross the lake and go up the Miwasa to the landing and so to town.
I will order a full outfit in town, and bring it in immediately by way of Caribou Lake, and down stream to you.

I will bring a little process mill if I can get one.

If I have no trouble you will see me about the first of September.

Anyway I will be in before the ice begins to run.
Coming back I will have no trouble going up the Miwasa or Musquasepi or across Caribou Lake, because Martin Sellers has steamboats there, and he is independent and friendly to us.
