144 Sun, Nov 14 Could not sleep last night and and when I got up in the morning I found my feet, hands and eyes were badly swollen from the cold I think. Pink my plants which I had collected for the task two days in press and by that time it was noon. Again I started out with my boy and went down the trail a short distance where I found the Schizoa and collected it to my heart's content. In the forenoon I with my boy across the stream and collected a little. On my way back in the P.M. I collected but little and after coming back to camp I put all the things in press and changed shirts and waited for the lollipops for dinner while we had by candle lights. Have an enormous appetite. This is to be our last night at Paha-Paha for which I am very thankful.
