they were kept busy.
Night travelling was made possible by the midnight sun of which I will speak later.
Dave McPherson had a notorious daughter Eliza, who, and nobody knows how she managed it, married a Scotchman – a man from Glasgow University.
Some light difference of opinion on their wedding night resulted in him throwing her down the 200 foot bank which was immediately in front of their tent. On arrival at the bottom, bruised but not broken, she continued rolling into the river where she was first revived & then nearly drowned.
The plan worked because they were perfectly happy when I last saw them – although separated.
