Bound for the North Woods.
When Quonab left camp in the morning he went heavy laden, and the trail he took led to Myanos.

There was nothing surprising in it when he appeared at Silas Peck's counter and offered for sale a pair of snowshoes, a bundle of traps, some dishes of birch bark and basswood, and a tom-tom, receiving in exchange some tea, tobacco, gunpowder, and two dollars in cash.

He turned without comment, and soon was back in camp.

He now took the kettle into the woods and brought it back filled with bark, fresh chipped from a butternut tree.
