page 8, January 5, 1977 - North Shore News There are times wen a felier wot writes has to be real careful wot he says. F’rinstance, like wen I wus jest a kid, holdin’ down the Repeater Station at North Bend. This girl cum inter town an she wus real nice, so I ast her if she wud like to go fishin’ fer littel trout. CHDEUUSEDUGDEGUOOGEOESERSOGEAUOAOEAUAMGEIEEAUAT By Bill Clark HONANEDNOEGUROOQDOGUGSERENONUNGUEUGGUNGGUGAOAENN Ed Davidson wus Conduc- tor workin’ west, so it wusn’t no problem hitchin’ a ride on the caboose down to Skuzzi Crick. They had dug up an wus the hoghead, wus cussin’ at the front end becus he cudn’t get his gut into the cab, but otherwise, she wus a real nice day...until I got struck down by a disaster. We flagged No. 2 back to the Bend an it wus real queer how all the fellers from the Yard Office wus curious how I made out. ‘‘Well,’’ Ises, ‘‘we caught about a dozen trout an then sumthin’ happened wich I ain’t gonna tell you fellers, ner nobody else.’’ Well, sir, Dolly Brown wot wis Swing Despatcher whanged my _ acrost the shoulders an ses, ‘‘Congrat- ulations, kid!’’ Next Spike Phillips, who wus first trick Despatcher, shook my hand an the next dang thing |! fer to shake hands. It wus shur a helluva commotion fer jest catchin’a few trout, but things got even queerer wen they ses they are havin’ a party at Boston Bar that nite an they want me along,becus it is gonna be a celebrashun. It shur wus, too, until one of the fellers stands up an ses there is sumthin’ real impor- tant happens in a young feller’s life. He ‘ses it happens only onct—an then he looks at me an all the fellers start ‘cheerin’ and clappin’. I riz up sorta slow like, becus there’s sum things you just don’t talk about, but there wus no way outta this one. ““*Well,’’ I ses, ‘‘we wus about a half mile up the crick an it wus” goin’ purty good...’’ All the fellers startid cheerin’ agin. “Then,” I ses, ‘‘all to onct it happened...”’ By Clinton darkness had fallen. We passed Horse Lake (at 3,864 feet the highest point on the entire line) and picked up speed at last, as the track began to . straighten out across the Cariboo Plateau. At 6 p.m., one and three-quarter hours behind schedule, the Alex- anders. and their baggage were dumped into the snow -- and the waiting arms of their hosts -- at Exeter, the whistlestop for 100 Mile House. We. were lucky. One Christmas Eve, apparently, the train didn't make it until 10 p.m. What time our fellow- travellers reached Prince George, a further six time- table hours up the line, I | “I dropped the dang worms in the crick,’’ I sed. You jest wudn't believe how much beer them fellers never discovered. But we left ‘them and the train crew in merry spirits, and no doubt they all got home eventually in good shape for the next. day’s turkey. NO NONSENSE the 1wabneL snow, the highways around 100 Mile House were bare and wet, just as they had been all the way from Squamish.
