Picked up traps. Caught 1 Sorex fumeus,
1 Blarina brevicauda, 1 Trapaecogaps insipie,
3 Chromysus leucopus, and 1 Glancomps Vo-
lans. The Glancomps was caught in a mouse
trap at the edge of a stream, and evidently
fell backward into a pool and was drowned;
I found it in about 4 miles of water. Sorex
was caught in a runway under the moss near
a stream. Returned to Harriman & skinned
