Kilkieran Quay. Both F.* and self were utterly done up 

 with the fatigue of the long" day and the early rising*." 



How intently his mind was now bent on securing 

 success is shown by the opening of next day's journal : 



(Friday, August 6th}. Our plan is to take inside Kilkieran Bay to- 

 day. Then, Birmore and Corrig-na-mackan on Saturday ; if sufficiently 

 fine, possibly to Eagle Rock. The Skiard Rocks on Tuesday. This 

 to be the end, as there is too much weed-cutting at Carig-a-Laughaun 

 rocks (which is otherwise a tip-top locality). If I am well and strong 

 enough, and weather permits, I hope this plan will get a seal (Hali- 

 chserus). It is now quite calm, and all my plans may fail ; but courage 

 and care may yet do it. Nil desperandum. 



(A) With Kilkieran we may take Casheen and Coonawilleen coming 

 out at Kiggaul Bay ; or try Greatman's Bay. 



(B) Corrig-na-mackan Rocks are best done from Kilkieran. 



(C) The Skiard and Duagoodle from Roundstone in hooker. 

 Four days wanted will, with a rest on Sunday, bring us to Tuesday, 



supposing weather fine. Then to Aran. 

 Sic, man proposes. 



* Mr. W. Frazer, F.R. C.S.I., had joined him at Roundstone.
