A party of men went out to collect pitch to repair one of our canoes, which was split; and the rest went round the point of the island, and took the canoes over the rapid, one at a time, with the assistance of a line. When we got over the rapids we crossed to another village of the natives on the north side, where I saw the skin of a wild sheep [mountain goat], which had fine beautiful wool on it. Here we took breakfast and waited the arrival of the other canoe, which in about an hour came up; and the men when out for pitch killed 3 deer. We proceeded on, and the water was so rapid, that we had to tow the canoes up by the line almost all the way to the landing at the lower end of the portage, a distance of about six miles. In passing a bad place the tow-line of the small canoe, which the hunters had on ahead, broke; but fortunately there was nothing in her, as the three hunters were on shore dragging her up, and had taken out all the loading. As she passed by us Capt. Lewis got some of the natives to bring her to shore [the Clah-lah-lar indians from the last village]. In the evening we got to the end of the portage, which is about two miles. We took our baggage to the top of the hill and remained with it all night; during which some showers of rain fell.

Side and halted at a village where we took breakfast.  the men who were hunting pitch cam up with their canoe.  one of them by the name of Collins had killed three Deer and brought them to us. Capt. Lewis purchased a white mountain Sheep Skin [mountain goat, Oreamnos americanus] for which he gave 2 Elk hides   we bought a fiew Salmon trout [steelhead trout] then we proceed. on  Soon came to bad rapids where we had to tow one canoe up at a time. Drewyer & the 2 Fields went on a head with their Smal canoe.  their chord broke & their canoe went back down the rapids and taken up by the Indians below, who returnd. it to us.   our officers gave them two knives for the kindness.  one of the men lamed one of his feet towing over the Stons  with Some fatigue we got all the canoes to the lower end of the portage of the big Shoote and unloaded in the large eddy below on N. Side and carried all the baggage on the top of the hill, and Camped  a number of the natives visited us  Some distance below this place I Saw a large grave yard little below an ancient village.  this is a different manner from any I have Seen of burring the dead in tombs about 8 feet Square made of wood plank and tite flowers [floors] made of plank layn in them and the corps are layn out on the flower Roped up in Some kind of a Robe, and all thier property is deposited with them Such as copper tea kittles baskets cockle Shells  canoes are layn by the Side of Sd. tombs also.  Several Images cut in wood one put up at the ends of Said tombs &C  one of the Indians Stole an axe from us  another told one of our men and he followed him and took it from him and told him that he was bad and he replied the he was &C--
