They were unable to move the log, but they cut it through, and carried Wood to a hut, Heavy rain fell on Wednesday and Thursday. Assisted by a settler and a lad, the party set out to carry Wood fourteen miles along a bridle-track to the Thames. The “going” was very rough, 'and the first stretcher collapsed, so a sapling one was made. ,The party reached Thames exhausted. Wood is suffering from shock, bruises, and exposure, but is progressing favorably. Woods’ Great Peppermint Cure for coughs, golds never fails.-riAdrU
