Concord, May 30 1904.
  Cloudy with S.W. [southwest] wind and heavy rain all
P. M. and into evening.
  Spent forenoon prospecting for fine timber which
I intend cutting next month. Also worked a couple
of hours on cutting out a new wood road to lead
through the Prescott pine lot past the lone black birch.
Reached the cabin at noon & dined. There were
only a few people on the river & those disappeared when the
rain began. The mosquitos at Ball's Hill were terrific.
Heard a Blackburnian [Blackburnian warbler] near Pulpit Rock & a Canadian Warbler
in Davis's Swamp.
  Sspent P.M. writing in the farm house. No walk at 
evening; it was still rainy.
