What broader Returning of the path I saw
Rush saw & shot a Hollomys audobati. #153
went along the path a ways, as nearly as
I could see his mode of traveled resembles that
of the American Cottontail rabbit. After
had put it in my sack when taken
eight or ten steps when I saw another leap
out of the path. The path at this spot was
dry and covered with leaves, as the previous
one #145. I went down in front the saddle, as shown
in above drawing when a bird I thought was a dove flew
from the path and left again a little farther along.
He turned out to be a Ground Roller, at Culebris
Petrolides when I was putting him in my sack
I noticed some bats. They would fly up and
down the path forcing me to close that
I could feel their the wind from their wings,
but I could not succeed in shooting one
though there must have been at least
twelve or more
