Rockies easily three days since we ate not yet
anti-fried against sky plane - food rations at
I - the evening I put my my mag-
netic tent near The house site - this is
the second time I have used it, once before
having had it at Barge Rocks when we were
aground.
Thursday Aug. 28-1913
Clear and cool again with the best of
weather for this work. We are getting pretty
well rested out especially the equinox.
Friday August 29, 1913.
Work continued and completed today.
Our dinner has been taken to the beach
alone which are the seven tenths of Ethos:
It is there near the little stream that we
will build our house.
Saturday Aug. 30-1913.
Spent the day getting our last few
personal efforts together and preparing
to leave the ship. Our letters were all
ready and packed last night. Sprigg will mail
these upon the arrival of the ship at St. John's.
About 8 o'clock Sprigg opened up some
champagnes and we had a drink around.
