Aug. 9
I was awake very early and up
before daylight and sat at my
doors and watched the day come
in. After breakfast Mrs. Clements
showed me some ophiolite from that
a boy had brought in and so
I took him up on the western slope
of Burulan Spur and collected
a quantity of it in a newly
cleared rice field.
came home and had time to dry
some clothes and change dress
before noon.
It was rather raining in
the afternoon, and I began the
packing for the mountains; I
fixed up the "chew"; some clothes
and specimens which I took
up to dump at here in the
late afternoon. Nearly all day the
house has been full of coolies
and hampers has been around
and I think tried to stir up
some discord. Had a late dinner
and then I sat at my door
and smoked and watched for the
night.
