On p. 340, TRP puts the "discharge"
in December, which is a minor error, but the Susquehanna crossing in
January '65 appears to be a WHOPPER!  The only reason I can think of
for this circuitous trek is that, since they were just killing time,
the pair decided to reconnoiter their future route, perhaps to see
what kind of ferry service would be available for transporting their
instruments in the spring.
