Clearwater, BC (No. 2)

Prior to European settlement, the area that is now occupied by the village was occupied by the Okelhs First Nations. They were eventually superseded by the Chilcotins in the 1870s.

The fur trade brought the earliest settlers to the area. The Overlanders expedition to the Cariboo goldfields rafted down the North Thompson River in 1862. When they first arrived at the mouth of the Clearwater River, they named it for its distinct clarity compared to the relatively muddy waters of the North Thompson. The Overlanders also named Raft Mountain, which rises northeast of Clearwater to a height of 2,450 m (8,038 ft).

Other dates

One of the smallest locomotives based at Goldfields is a former RNZAF shunting locomotive.

Price 151/1944 was employed at RNZAF Te Rapa (now the site of The Base shopping centre) the exact details of its service life elude me at this stage and I'll edit this as soon as I find the relevant details.

In 1980, the locomotive was deemed surplus to requirements and donated to Goldfields Railway. It was overhauled in preservation, and occasionally, it can be seen outside Goldfields' workshop.

Price 151/1944 is not the only shunter historically employed by the RNZAF, Price 150/1944 was employed at RNZAF Weedons (Selwyn District, Canterbury Region), and is now at McLean's Island with Steam Scene. Price 149/1944 served at Base Te Rapa and the Ngāruawāhia army camp before being picked up by the National Army Museum at Waiouru and leased to SteamRail, Whanganui.

It's Fine Press Friday!

For today’s Fine Press Friday post, our subject is Bound for the Goldfields, published by the Australia-based Wayzgoose Press in 1990 in an edition of 55 copies, another gift from the estate of book artist and collector Dennis Bayuzick. The original story was written by Charles Dickens for his weekly journal Household Words in June 1855 and the Wayzgoose edition was designed and illustrated with linocuts and wood engravings by Wayzgoose founder Mike Hudson (1939-2021). Ours is a review copy, meaning that this specific book was originally sent out to someone to be reviewed for publication before it was actually distributed.

According to the title page, the story told in this book is a “true account of a journey from Melbourne to Castlemaine by a carrier of supplies to the goldfields.” A journey like this was long and harrowing, as described in the book’s text, which is printed vertically as part of the grassy landscape, and the wood/linocuts provide an excellent visualization of where the traveler physically is within the story being told. Readers will see many trees as the subject walks through forests, sees the night sky, and even the destination of the traveler as he arrives: the tents of those working in the gold fields.

This book was hand-set by Hudson's long-time partner and Wayzgoose Press co-founder Jadwiga Jarvis (1947-2021) in 14pt Monotype Baskerville and was printed on a Western Proof Press using Mohawk Letterpress Paper. Mike Hudson Bound the edition, 46 copies of which were in printed hessian fabric with leather thongs, as shown here.

"What a kerffufle you do still manage to kick up! Always something stirring, eh? You haven't changed one little bit in all of these ten years. Really, it's remarkable." Suzuki tries to slither round the question.

"Since you compliment me as being remarkable, let me display some more remarkable dollops of learning appropriate to this case. The ancient Greeks set very high store by physical prowess and encouraged {pp 147|148} its pursuit by awarding valuable prizes to the winners of all sort of athletic contests. But, strangely enough, there is no record that they ever offered prizes for intellectual prowess. Until recently this curious circumstance incessantly puzzled me."

"I see," says Suzuki still trying to make himself agreeable. "That does seem odd."

"However, just the other day, I chanced, in the course of my researches into aesthetics, to light upon the explanation. Years of accumulated worrying fell instantly away from me and, in that blesses trice, as though disburdened of all errors and earthly delusions, I found myself transported to that pure realm of infinite enlightenment where my soul rejoiced in its transcendence of the world and its attainment of pansophic self-awareness."Waverhouse departs on such a flight of gongoristic drivel that even the toadying Suzuki allows his face to slip into the lineaments of having had enough. "He's at it again" may be read in my master's resigned expression as, with eyes cast down, he sits there tapping, kan-kan-kan, on the rim of the cake-dish with his ivory chopsticks. Nowise disconcerted, Waverhouse blathers on.

"And to whom do you think we are indebted for that brilliant logical analysis, which, by its simple explanation of this seeming anomaly, has rescued us forever from the dark abyss of doubt? It was that famous Greek philosopher, the greatest of all scholars since scholarschip began, the renowned founder of the Peripatetic School, Aristotle himself. His explanation___I say, Sneaze, please stop flogging that cake-dish and pay a little more attention___may be summarized thus. The prizes awarded at Greek contests were worth more than the performances that earned them, for the prizes were intended not only to stimulate effort but to reward achievement. Consequently, if one were to give a prize for intellectual prowess, for knowledge itself, one would have to find something to award which was more valuable than knowledge. But knowledge already is the rarest gem in the world. The Greeks, unwilling to debase the value of knowledge, piled up chests all crammed with gold to the height of Mount Olympus. They gathered in the wealth of Croesus, and wealth beyond that wealth, but in the end they recognized that the value of knowledge can not be matched, let alone exceeded. So, masters of reason that they were, they decided that the prize should be nothing at all. From this, Suzuki, I trust you will have learnt that, whatever the color of your money, it is worthless stuff compared with learning. Let us accordingly apply this {p148|p149} revealed truth, this fundamental principle, to the particular problem that has arisen today. Surely you're bound to see that Goldfield's merely a paper man, a bill of exchange with eyes and a nose scrawled onto it. If I may put it epigrammatically, the man's no more than an animated banknote. And if he's money in motion, currency one might say, his daughter's nothing but a circulating promissory note. In contrast now, let us consider Coldmoon. With consummate ease [.."

trail rides with eastfall

I finally wrote up my exercise program with Eastfall so now it should be a lot more organised, and hopefully we should start seeing results of it soon. One item that shows up a lot in my exercise programs is trail rides. Dew’s Farm just beyond Wolf’s Inn is beautiful, it makes you wonder what happened there.
