Mr. Moore said that Mr. ‘Peat's assistant had connected up the radio with the 220 volt line instead of the 110 volt line. As a consequence when the current was turned on, the fow of electricity was too powerful and damage naturally followed. Smoke issued from the radio when the current was switched on, Mr. Moose said, and. l this indicated to him that wrong conâ€" nection had been made. ‘This connecâ€" tion with the wrong voltage wire wWAas * | the only way that the blowing up of the radio could be explained.

The dogs had nothing to eat for four days and the men nothing but tea for three. It took them about 24 going hours to travel the last twelve miles to the settlement. At night they slept in the open on tarpaulins. Howlâ€" ing of timber wolves kept the dogs and men awake the first few nights, but after that they were too tired to care about anything.
