It may, perhaps, seem difficult to imagine how so many things 
could be packed into a waggon of these dimensions ; and indeed this 
was not accompHshed without much contrivance : but the fact is, that 
the waggon was greatly overloaded, as the event afterwards proved. 
Five very large chests, made to fit without any loss of space, occu- 
pied nearly all the body of the waggon, leaving but just room enough 
for one person to sit. To the inside of the tilt, were tied bags filled 
with a variety of things, such as were expected to come frequently into 
use : and bottles, muskets, pistols, powder-horns, the cutlass, and a 
great number of other articles, were made fast with thongs of raw hide 
to the bamboo frame. The fore half of the waggon, was separated 
from the other part, by a canvas partition, to form a sleeping-place, 
where the bedding lay very conveniently along the tops of the chests. 
The remaining space was quite filled up with reams of paper, a press, 
the smaller chests, a large tin collecting box, the brandy barrel, 
the water casks, and other goods. In the bed, during the hours 
of travelling, were placed the sextant, and such instruments as were 
liable to be injured by the rough motion of the waggon. In the 
chest, on which the driver sits, were the tools and implements for 
repairing the waggon, and such things as more immediately related 
to the office of waggon-driver. On the outside of the waggon, the 
spare yokes, lever, tar-bucket, skid, spades, pick-axe, hatchets, and 
whip-stocks, were fastened. Beneath, on the trap (or step-frame)
