'fuesdav 26th. , Told by the Pioneers Some rrhuanook arrived with furs. Wednesday 27th. Very few beaver produced by the Thuanook and these thev were loth to trade. Ouvrie and the Vancouver men sent to • procure the letters for Mr. Ogden from the Cadhors: which if Indian report is to be trusted cannot be far distant. November 1833. Thursday 28th. Men still engaged with the pickets. Today there is scarcely an Indian to be seen about the premises. Frida~' 29th. Tonight the erection of pickets has been completed. Ouvrie has returned but brought no intelligence of the Schooner Saturday 30th. One man preparing- the pit saw, two digging a saw pit, and the others filling the trench in which the pickets stand.

Two men have commenced sawing boards for the grate which is to be placed in the S.W. row of pickets three in putting up a row of pickets extending from the corner of store to that of peoples house in front. Two repairing boat and the rest in sawing and boring pickets. Wednesday 4th. One man squaring wood for sawpit and two have heen sawing . A row of pickets erected from each corner of peoples houses to '\V extending to pickets. This enables them to exclude the Indians. Another row connecting the N.E. corner of store with the pickets behind, thus there is a small court formed between the ends of the peoples house and store where the Indians can remain while waiting their turn to trade, without being able (if it is so wished) either to enter the main or corner court, or enter the peoples house. Thursday 5th. P. Charles with four men dispatched in the boat to Fort Langlay for a supply of goods and provisions, the Cadboro's coming being dispaired of. He was instructed to return if he met the vessel, and he (returned) tonight accompanied by some who say that the vessel is approaching and not far distant One man (working) pit saws 3 repairing bags and making the others preparing boat. (~) and Friday 6. Boat manned by five men dispatched this mg. to ascertain the correctness of the Indian report of yesterday. ~£en employed 24
Told by the Pioneers in leveling the yard which some days ago was ploughed and harrowed, in clearing away the rubbish in the small court, and that lying immediately without the pickets. Saturday 7th. Work proceeding as yesterday, and in addition all the doors have been made within and the small gate by which the Indians enter to trade. Boards have not yet been prepared for the large gate. Sunday 8th. The men returned today having met the vessel near Whidbys Island. She has been delayed hitherto by foul winds and is still bearing against a contrary breeze. I have received instructions from Mr. McLaughlin to proceed in the Cadboro to Sound. Monday 9th. The 'weather being still unfavorable for the ,'essel P. Charles was sent along with four men to bring up a boats cargo of the goods for this place. Tuesday 10th. Pitsaw at work, one man squaring logs for sawpit, one making stools and the others still clearing away rubbish etc. ~Iuch trouble having been of late occasioned by the two stallions frequent wanderings they have been (herded) by a Klickitat Indian. 'Wednesday 11. The boats arrived this morning loaded and the people were employed till nearly midday in carrying up the goods from beach. The Vancouver men dispatched with ~Ir. Ogdens Private Letters. The boat is to set out tomorrow for the remainder of the cargo for this place. Tomorrow I am to join the Cadboro in obedience to Mr. ~IcLaughlins instructions. Wm. Fraser Tolmie. December 1833. Thursdav 12th. Sent our boat with five men down • to the Cadboro for the remainder of our goods by which conveyance Dr. Tolmie went on board with his baggage to proceed to his destination at Fort McLaughlin. '1'he men at the place employed at various ]jecessary jobs. Fine clear weather. Friday 13th. This morning our boat returned from the Cadboro with the remainder of our things, part of which got slightly wet owing to the roughness of the sea. Having examined and stored everything in its proper place, I equipped Bt. Ouvrie with some trading goods, tools, and provisions and sent him off about noon with part of the same in a canoe, assisted by Indians' to break ground at 'Whidbys Island with three men in hopes that a reinforcement would soon cast up as promised, from Fort Vancouver, for the purpose of commencing a new ef:'tablisllment thcn tu answer fJr Fort Langley and this place. And there being no India'1s on this ground I thought it might probably bp the best opportunity I would have of taking a run to }1'ort Langley 25
