woody ravines, as the evening was fast approaching, and a slave was 
sent to let us know that the carriage was ready to take us home. 
I quitted this place with the more regret, as I did not expect to have 
an opportunity of visiting it again: and I have been since informed 
by Mr. Polemann, that the woody kloofs, or ravines in this range, 
contain many of the forest trees and other plants which, according 
to common opinion, are only to be found in more distant parts of the 
colony. * 
* This day's collection amounted to 104 species; among which were found on the 
road near to Cape Town,

Imearia opposita integerrima glabra : plan- Chironia frutescem 
ta minuta S. repente multotih minor. Lobelia sccunda.
