CHAP. I. 
jA. P R I L 2 2d, 1776, I fat off from Charlflon 
for the Cherokee nation, and after riding this day 
about twenty-five miles, arrived in the evening at 
Jackfonfburg, a village on Ponpon river. The next 
day’s journey was about the fame diflance, to a 
public houfe or inn on the road. 
The next day, early in the morning, I fat off 
again, and about noon flopped at a public houfe to 
dine. After the meridian heats were abated, pro- 
ceeding on till evening, I obtained good quarters at 
a private houfe, having rode this day about thirty 
miles. At this plantation I obferved a large orchard 
of the European Mulberry tree (Morus alba) fome 
of which were grafted on flocks of the native Mul * 
berry (Morus rubra) ; thefe trees were cultivated 
for the purpofe of feeding filk-worms (phalaena 
bpmbyx). Having breakfafted, I fat forward again.
