  Side 20 yds# w Capt Lewis walked out before dinner & Killed a Deer, I 
  walked out after dinner and assended & but a few miles to view the

  Maney of the Creeks which appear to have no water near ther mouths have 
  Streams of running water higher up which rise & waste in the Sand or 
  gravel. the water of those Creeks are So much impregnated with the Salt 
  Substance that it cannot be Drank with pleasure.
