[AMM944 <AMM944@prodigy.net>]

There was an Kootenai woman named Lodge pole woman returned to her
people and told them that her white husband had turned her into a man. 
She wore mens clothes.   I know she took a wife and child hunted and
trapped like a man.  David Thompson used her as a guide and interpreter
for the trip down the Columbia River I think she went all the way to the
Ocean.  there is more but I'll let you to check out the book on page 137
of the book,  Sources of the River by Jack Nisbet.  published in 94  I
like the way he wrote the book.   He took the trip down the river the
best he could In today's time.  But David Thompson came down the river
and you can close Your eyes and see youself going down the river I have
made the trip by truck.  I would have loved to have came down the old
river with out dams.    Well chew on this one Later Jon Towns
