Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notices of the Harbor at the Mouth of the Columbia River: By the Commander and Other Officers of the Exploring Expedition I am well aware that many Opinions have been, and still are, entertained relative to the prudence of venturing with the ship before the channel had been explored and examined by the tender and boats. This is but natural to one unacquainted with the bar of the Columbia river and its dangers. Fter having paid much atten tion to this subject, and having been engaged there with the tender and boats in the survey, I feel myself entitled to give an Opinion as to the course pursued by Captain Hudson, and think it alto gether correct, on every ground of expediency, as well as the only proper one for him to have fol lowed under these circumstances.
