Miscellaneous Trips

ï~~TRIP TO GLACIER NATIONAL PARK, MONTANA,
And Other Points in the West.
July 8th, 1914.
Wednesday night, Billy, Jack and I left Saginaw via
Michigan Central for a Western trip. We spent
Thursday, July 9th,
shop ping in Chicago, as we needed an outfit for our rough work
in the mountains. We went to Marshall Field's and got heavy
shoes and riding breeches.
Called on Deane, who went to lunch with us at Marshall
Field's.
Went to the Great Northern city ticket office. Mr. Burton, one of the clerks, was very accommodating, and made various
suggestions as to our routing, tickets, etc., that proved helpful later on.
Deane thinks he may join us later, as Jack is to stop off
in Minneapolis, where Ted has been, while Billy goes on with me
to Moose Jaw, where we are to determine fully about the plans
for the new house at Buffalo Lake, and pick out the spot where it
is to be located. Deane is to let Ted know whether he can meet
him in St Paul next Monday.
Our old friend, Col. Pearson, gives us a fine automobile
ride around Chicago in the afternoon, and we get away on the
Chicago, 1ilwraukee and St Paul, at 6;35, and have our dinner on
the trairA

Friday, July 10 th.
Arrive at St Paul in the morning. Ted meets us. We
breakfast at the St Paul Hotel, where I run across my old acquaintance, Dr. Lieth, of Madison, who was the Geologist and
Mine Expert, that was with the Tax Commission, when we had our
~r-i 4 fj1 tba Iron country nearly two years ago.
