  Wednesday November the 20th 1805 Some rain last night dispatched Labiech 
  to kill Some fowl for our brackfast he returned in about 2 hours with 8 
  large Ducks on which we brackfast I proceeded on to the enterance of a 
  Creek near a Cabin no person being at this cabin and 2 Canoes laying on 
  the opposit Shore from us, I deturmined to have a raft made and Send a man 
  over for a canoe, a Small raft was Soon made, and Reuben Fields Crossed 
  and brought over a Canoe ¬ This Creek which is the outlet of a number 
  of ponds, is at this time (high tide) 300 yds wide ¬ I proceeded on up 
  the Beech and was overtaken by three Indians one of them gave me Some 
  dried Sturgeon and a fiew wappato roots, I employd Those Indians to take 
  up one of our Canoes which had been left by the first party that Came 
  down, for which Service I gave them each a fishing hook of a large Size ¬ on 
  my way up I met Several parties of Chinnooks which I had not before Seen 
  they were on their return from our Camp. all those people appeard to know 
  my deturmonation of keeping every individual of their nation at a proper 
  distance, as they were guarded and resurved in my presence &c# found 
  maney of the Chin nooks with Capt# Lewis of whome there was 2 Cheifs Com 
  com mo ly & Chil~lar~la~wil to whome we gave Medals and to one a flag. 
  one of the Indians had on a roab made of 2 Sea Otter Skins the fur of them 
  were more butifull than any fur I had ever Seen both Capt# Lewis & my 
  Self endeavored to purchase the roab with different articles at length we 
  precured it for a belt of blue beeds which the Squar ¬ wife of our 
  interpreter Shabono wore around her waste. in my absence the hunters had
