5 mammals all over in forest or on the edge of the
woods only two were fit to make up. I spent half
on how at the Bapo the rest of the day was spent in
hacking for the mountain trip.
April 13, 1935
After some battle we got along about eight
I tried to photo informally to Adamsons first
was found to be lame or fatigued as
he would not ride mule. We left Bisto about mid
day thirty or a little after and had an extra woman
trip down the river. The promised porters show
up but would only go as far as Matalo and wanted
such a high price that we decided could not secure them.
We also found that the Monaro is not coming
in until Sunday so our will have to wait for her.
