* While looking for a certain patch of Lygodium I found another snake. I, at once, recognized it as
the same kind observed in the morning.  Its behavior, too, was the same, it was equally slow in

our mistake very soon.  This path led us to Mr. Wimmer's.  We found
him in the field and he gladly showed us the right path.  We
had no further mishaps and we found ourselves at F.H. about
