This poor family needs a break. There were so many misspellings,

..."They came down the river with Otto Kestner and George Underwood, an Indian boy,
while Ovid Milbourne (Horace Ovid Milbourn) went to stay with Dunlap's two children, Elora and Arthur. Somewhere along the river there was a huge log jam, probably a half mile long. Mrs. Dunlap and the baby girl lay in the bottom of the canoe while the men dragged it over the jam. When they reached Taholah they hired an Indian to bring them down to Moclips by wagon."...
