The two boys,each 17 years old,were on a small boat trip.They had left Minneapolis weeks before.Now they had gone as far as Norway House,on Lake Winnipeg.They wanted to get to York Factory.But it was 450 miles away!And there was only one village between Norway House and it.
That night,the boys could hardly sleep.Over and over,each asked himself,"What can I say to my family if we turn back?But isn't it foolish for us to go alone into such a place?What will happen if we get lost?Should we turn back or not?”
The next morning,the boys talked with two policemen.
"We don't like to see you boys start out on this trip,”said one of the men in a serious voice.
"It's dangerous,"said the other."Why don't you boys go home now?”
"We've thought it over,”said Eric."We can't give up now.Shall we go on,Walter?”
"Yes,”Walter answered."It may be a very hard trip,but let's go!We started out to go to York Factory.We'll not stop until we get there.”
An old man was near the boys.He heard what they had said."Good luck for you!”he said to them."I believe you can make it.Just think about the next mile you have to go.Don't think about the ones after that.”
