Battle Harbor Salvador.
Saturday July 19 - 1913.
Clear and cool.
Waking at 4:00 a.m. I was awake at
the time and several times during the night. Each
time it was quite clear. When I saw the Captain
about 7:30 he remarked that "it was a good thing we
did not go last night because it was pretty thick this morn-
ing!"
Arriving Battle Harbor about 10:00 a.m., Mr. [illegible] and
Swell came out to meet us in the motor boat. Mr. [illegible]
has requested them to give us a new ship and they have
given us to understand that they will back us up.
Battle Harbor.
Sunday July 20
Rain and colder.
Just can't needed as I brought out some
of our personal belongings which are in very bad
shape. For their dry clothes.
We have gotten two mails and are
reading one book.
