Creator Transcript
  • 124 [number crossed out] 209 In Williams Lake no grebes nesting yet but saw 30 +/- western grebe, 2 black necked, 10 or 12 horned + 4 Holboell's. [Leo] Jobin told me much about his area + the chilcotin. Affirms that Trumpeter swans nest along the Chilcotin river, he has chased the downy young there. His wolf scent 2 or 3 drops skunk scent in glycerine. He puts it in small vials + drops them from horseback then sets snares along the line. Never go near a snare after it is set. For wolves he places the strichnine [strychnine] in 1" cubes of pork kidney fat, makes a small hole in the centre, places the poison in + seals it. Scatters these around the bait. Work best below zero but admits very destructive to fox. After baits prepared carry them in a bucket with some horse manure + before touching dip your [words crossed out] rub your fingers in beaver castor no need to use gloves. Marginalia: Leo Jobin
