August 17, 1805

Clark did not meet at the assigned rendezvous point. Out of desperation, I sent a man and a few indians to search for him. He finally showed up with the interpreter Charbono and another woman who was Sahcahgaweah's sister. This woman had escaped from the Minnetares and rejoined her nation. We were finally all together again and were prepared to continue our journey. As we entered the Shoshoni camp Sahcahgaweah recognized the chief as her long-lost brother Cameahwait.
