  4th September Tuesday 1804 a verry Cold wind from the S# S# E, we Set out 
  early and proceeded on the mouth of a Small Creek in a bend to the L# S# 
  Called White lime, at 11/2 miles higher up passed a large Creek on the L# 
  S# Called or white paint between those two Creeks (the latter of which is 
  abt# 30 yds# wide) we passed under a Bluff of red Ceeder, at 4 mes# 1/2 
  passed the mouth of the River Que Courre (rapid R# on the L# S# and Came 
  to a Short distance above, this River is 152 yards wide at the mouth & 
  4 feet Deep Throwing out Sands like the Platt (only Corser) forming bars 
  in its mouth, I went up this river three miles to a butifull Plain on the 
  upper Side where the Panias once had a Village this river widens above its 
  mouth and is devided by Sand and Islands, the Current verry rapid, not 
  navagable for even Canoos without Great dificulty owing to its Sands; the 
  colour like that of the Plat is light the heads of this river is not 
  known, it Corns into the Missourie from the S# W# by West, and I am told 
  that is Genl. Course Some distance up is parrelel with the Missourie
