This should be borne in mind by traders.
Preparations for the spring shooting soon became necessary. I had no shot, and was obliged to make all I needed. The Rus- sians are accustomed to hammer lead out into slender bars, to cut these in small cubes, and roll them. This process being exceed- ingly laborious, I hit upon another plan. I took a piece of walrus tusk and planed it off until it was about half an inch thick, flat on each side, and about two inches wide by six long. Taking a large nail..., I filed the point and rigged a "fiddle-bow drill. " With this I bored a hole about three eighths of an inch in diameter, a little smaller at one end than at the other. I then filed off* a little more of the point and bored another hole a little smaller, and repeated the process until the last hole was about the diameter of a duck-shot I ran my lead into small bars, and, greasing them well, wire-drew them through the holes, beginning with the largest. The result was lead wire of the diameter required.
