When I reached Camp Run, I went at once to the patch of Aplectrum
near the Camp, not a specimen was seen, I then went
to two of the other patches, but not a sign of the plants
was observed.  Near the marked beech I found a wood-thrush
nest with four eggs.  It now began to pour down.  All
during the morning <s>we had</s> there were only light sprinklings
but now it seemed to have started in earnest.  It did not
take long to be drenched in such a down pour.  Having failed
to find the plants in flower I so eagerly sought, I lost
all desire of carrying on further investigations so started for
home, although it was but 2 o'clock.  I reached home
about half-past three.  One specimen of Chamaelirium luteum
was already found in bloom;  on the hillside, beyond Owl
Camp were found more than a dozen of these plants.
