Bath today. 
at work on the sled. 6 fish in the trap after standing three days. 
[line] Wednesday Feb. 5 [line]
Cameroff + Lukeen have conducted to go to Koyoukuk and see if they can raise any furs, and then come back and go to the Redoubt with Ivan. I may go at the same time although I had rather go alone. Tallowilno brings in ten partridges from the snares. Johnny gets none. Boil one of Stepanoffs geese for dinner but not having been soaked, it is very salt. Get an Indian to tie up a morda for me as one of mine is a bad one. Make bread.
[line] Thursday. Feb 6 [line]
Ten fish in the trap. Lukeen + Cameroff off to Koyoukuk. Get my snow shoes mended. Get dog harnesses sewed. I have many misgivings as to my journey for I get better very slowly and I fear I may get worse + break down on the road. But it can't be avoided in any way I can see.
