Sat. June 2: Overcast; very little sun; no rain. Weather seems to be northerly. Most of day spent on completing correction of 1953 MS. Drying materials on hand. Nothing in traps; nothing in the bat mist net. Lionet shot with .22 dust a fine big dragonfly new to the collection — awing in dusk. A native brought in this afternoon, from a hole in a coconut palm, a pretty brown Rhinolophus? new to the collection. More visitors from Kalo Kalo this afternoon — Galawina's family. Until earlier this afternoon (since Thursday) we have had the wife of the No 2 cook and the mother of Sipoma, also from Kalo Kalo. These women and a male escort waited this afternoon for the boys to get their weekly issue of tobacco and canned meat before starting back for t their village.
