Thanksgiving at Knott
On Nov. 15th, 1903, Arehie
Smith and myself, left the Marsh
all Lake Mining district for Knott
with Archie's pack train. The
loose snow being about four feet
deep and badly drifted we
found it very difficult crossing
from Mt. Marshall to the head of
Willow Creek, a distance of about
four miles after which the snow
was not so deep.
Early on the morning of the
16th we set out for Knott reach
ing there at six o'clock that even
ing. On the evening of Nov.
26th we were invited by Mr. Wal
dom and Wiley to a Thanksgiving
party at Mr. Waldom's. Among
those present were H. Smith and
family of Florence, Mrs. F. How
ard, Mrs. A. C. Wiley and fami
lies, of Knott, Miss Alice K. Com
ings, C. 8. Thompson, R. A.
Murphy, M. Bricker, Andy Lar
son, D. L. Roy and C. E. Fred
rich.
A dance began at six o'clock
in the evening and lasted until
seven o'clock Friday morning.
The new school house at Knott
is now finished and Aliss Comings
with seven pupils began school in
the new school house Alonday the
30th.
On our return we took a new
route for the gold field to avoid
snow. We went up Salmon river
by the old wire bridge which was
in the sixties and seventies the
great road house between Warren
and Alt. Idaho. The old bridge is
now washed away by high water
and the only inhabitant is James
Carry. A trail is needed very
much from this point to tha mouth
of Bear creek. This would easily
make an all winter route to the
camp.
