After a very- 

 good lunch, 

 the proprie- 

 tor joined us 

 in a walk in 

 the woods near 

 the lake* In a 

 rotten stump 

 I found about 

 UO specimens 

 of a cosmetid 

 and one small 

 scorpion. The 

 best collect- 

 ing y^as under 

 stones and 

 logs. On the 

 way back to 

 the hotel we 



found a dead tree on fire. We all took off our coats and 

 put it out with some difficulty. When I picked up my coat 

 I found that sparks had landed on it and there were two holes, 

 one of which was in a conspicuous place. 7«hen we got back to 

 our hotel in Osorno we had hot baths which did a lot to raise 

 our spirits. My suit was by now a sorry looking mess but a 

 thorough brushing did help it a lot. It was my only good suit 

 in Chile and if Raul hadn't been such a dude I wouldn't have 

 been wearing it. 



The hotel at Puerto Oct ay. 



Falls of Pilmaiquen, with Puntiagudo and Osorno. 



Mar. 1. Teuber, Mrs Teuber, Corral, Suarez, Cortes and I 

 started at 9 #30 AM for Pilmaiquen in the station wagon. 

 The ride was much more comfortable than the one yesterday. 

 We stopped to see the falls and to take pictures and also 

 to visit the new hydroelectric plant there below the falls
