*Close to this rock resting on a stone in the brook. I saw a lizard(?). It was 4' or 5' long, of an orange color speckled with black spots.
**Here, too, secured to <s>the rocky</s> an overarching rock, I observed a hornet's nest.

August 20, 1902.  A trip to Loch Raven then to Glen Ellen, and
home by way of the Dulaney Valley Pike.  I left home about 9 A.M.
In the little ravine, I secured some good specimens of Dicksonia,
Athyrium thelypteris, A. filix-foemina and Nephrodium Novaeboracense.
*On a shelving rock I found two specimens of <s>cl</s> Cystopteris fragilis.

From the ravine I walked along the road, keeping close to the hill-side
to the 3-arched bridge.  All along in the lawn grew Sabbatia [Sabatia]
angularis.  In one place I got two specimens of Onoclea sensibilis var. obtusilobata.** 
After I left the 3-arched bridge, I had some difficulty to
get to Glen Ellen; the path I should have taken leads along the
crest of the hill, whereas I took a lower path which led me through
an almost impenetrable thicket.  From Glen Ellen to the pike
was easy travelling.  Not far from the mansion on some lime
stone I found a nice lot of Pellaea atropurpurea.  This was the
star find of the day.

To-day, I again secured some good specimens of Nephrodium simulatum
