It was thought at first by those not on the scene that Bertram may have been fishing but the authentic report shows that he was drowned while at his work.

St. Feliclen. Que. July 10th, 1934

Wednesday (July 4th) Bertram Ramsay, and I left camp about 2.30 p.m. to run a couple claim lines to complete staking of 15 claims at. :11; portage-east end of Wakon- c l.

We ran the short rapids at the

end of the narrows, crossed the small lake (about 1-4 milel, and landed the canoe at the portage-

Thls portage is around a second rapids and water fall, and is about a 1-4 mile long. coming out on a second small lake. We left the canoe drawn up about two thirds out of water and proceeded east and then south about a hundred yards to a set of posts. We left Frank at the posts, telling him we'd be gone twenty-five or thirty miliutes, and Ramsay and I started west to blaze a line across one claim, to cu; our outsde 1W; north and south line. Bertram said he would wait there for us

Ramsay and I blazed our line, coming out practically at the rapids cn the shore of Wakoniehi Lake. We then returned to the portage, following the south shore of the small lake between the rapids and the falls. We stopped at the foot of the rapids, and again on a point about half way around the lake, m shout to Bertram to paddle over and pick us up with the canoe, getting no answer.

When we reached the portage (45 to 60 minutes after leaving Bertram there) the canoe was lying about 25 feet ou:. bottom up. The stern was submerged with the Johnson motor still attached. 'l'lic bow and front half was sticking out of wat- er, lying on a shallow ledge 0f rocks about 15 feet from shore. The canoe was about midway between the portage and the channel leading to the falls-channel and portage be. mg about tliiny feet apart.

Ramsay and I searched the lake shore, both sides of the rapids and i'alls, and all along , the portage icrossing the portage three iimcsl for about an hour and a. half, and then paddled to Gilmans camp, about s, mile and a quarter west for help.

Willie Cooper and Jeff Gilman then returned to the portage with us. taking their own canoe and

motor, and we continued [Q scam-h statueite. a service rifle shoot at 200 until after fight 031ml“ we m- Ii and 500 yards, Capt. Lucas and C. Q.

Other guardsmcn were deploying through tlie rich agricultural valleys south of the city, preparing to guard advancing truck trains of supplies for the sticldcnly foozi conscious com- munity. Three-inch guns were re- ported set up at strategic points.

Five litindrcd special police and 25 extra "prowlcr curs" were commis- sioned in San Francisco to augment the regular force of 1.300 officers.

Mayor Rossl mobilized a commit- tee of 500 prominent lndlvdiuals to engineer the distribution of necessi- ties.

A committee of strikers likewise made plans to feed the populace by establishing depots to sell all fresh provisions except meat.

The body was lying in a sort of ditch about tlirce feet deep, through which was ruiiiiliig a strong under- current.
