Mon.
Oct. 18
I was up early and had tea
and changed the drums on my
plants before breakfast.
Baptain and Mr. Blemens and I
started out over the same
road we walked last night.
Baptain killed a long snake about
6 feet, a most beautiful green.
Everything was most interesting.
I found some fine specimens
of Lygodium dichotomum? and
a few other interesting forms
and one little tree which we
think may be the mistletoe tree.
I left the Blemens in the
field and came home and laid
my back before tiffin. Went out
in the matin quarters in the
afternoon and did a little sleeping;
got my coat fixed and
some money changed and
wrote some letters.
We sailed for Kudah ab
about 6.30.
I put my plants in press
after dinner and went to
bed on deck at about 10.
