Cloudy- warm. All three of us devoted the entire A. M. 
to taking care of the plants. In the early E. M. Pease 
and I went to Tracadigash Point and got some Botrychrum 
lunaria, and so forth. Fernald went by way of the steamer 
"Admiral" to Dalhousie on his way to St. John to cash some 
checks and get some sneakers. In the evening Pease and 
I collected on Sarleton Point. 
July 26, 1904, Tuesday 
Cloudy and very warm in the A. M. Rainy in the evening. 
In early A. M. Pease and I worked on plants until about 
ten o’clock. We then walked up the road to the west for 
a half mile or so beyond the old carding mill and then 
turned north to the base of the "Sandstone" Hills . We 
walked up( very slowly) the first one and worked down 
over one or two cliffs after eating a lunch on top. We 
d 1 
botanized to the westward to a ravine and then came $own « 
that and started for a cedar swamp to the south. We 
heard falling water over to the northwest and decided 
to investigate. After caching the packs under some bushes 
we walked ap the road along the slope of the hill to 
about 650 feet above sea level and then followed a brook 
down, which fell in continuous cascades and falls for 300 
feet, measured by the barometer, in a very short distance. 
Peqse and I had to use the rope in the greater part^of the 
© 
descent. . When we reached the open we had to manjeuveir a 
little to secure our rucksacks. We found a beligerent bull 
in the field where we had cached our packs. I had to walk 
outside 
down/ the fence for perhaps an eighth of a mile while Pease 
kept out of sight. I finally got the bull where some 
the packs 
bushes obstructed his view of Pease, who then res cued Afche®.
