[[underline]] April 7 [[/underline]] - Sunday. Had an early breakfast & started back to Munising at 7, arriving at 11. Found good roads until near town when our sleigh ride ended in 2 miles of bare ground. Thawing a little when we reached town but soon began to snow & by dark the world is all white again.
Mr. Wyman, forester of the Cleveland Cliffs Iron Co. called me up on phone & asked me out to dinner & to see the wolf killed on Grand Island day before yesterday. Wrote careful descriptions of it & of the mounted one caught on the island last winter.
Met Mr. Schaff, assistant forester & a Mr. Spencer, in the pulp mill. All three are fine young fellows. We had a good dinner & many things of mutual interest to discuss. Wolves & birds & forestry.
Came back to hotel & wrote on report all I could. The Beach Iron stands on the shore & my room looks out over the frozen bay to Grand Island and the lake beyond. Most of the afternoon the snow has cut out the view, but for compensation I will have good tracking snow tomorrow.
