After supper Fernald and I walked down to the wharf
and back. Unpacked trunks some.

Rainy, almost all day. Fernald and I had breakfast
about 7.00 A. M. and rode to Baie des Cochons and
botanized along the west end and north shore of
Cap Enrage'. Found one place where it was
impossible to pass, on account of cliffs dropping
abruptly into the water, other than with difficulty
and with the aid of alpine ropes. Started back from
McDonald Cove
For Baie des Cochons and met Donald Cole about
5.30 in the team that came out for us. At noon
we built a fire under a big boulder and dried
out some while eating. Electric lights out of
order this evening so went to bed early.

Mostly clear. Fernald and I worked all A. M. taking
care of plants collected yesterday. After dinner
(about 2.15 P. M.) we walked out to Pt. aux
Corbeaux and collected there until 5.30 P. M.
Later partially took care of specimens collected.
Had a very severe cold in the head and throat all
day.
July 6, 1906, Friday
Cloudy. After breakfast Fernald and I were employed
until 10.30 A. M. in taking care of specimens.
We were then driven out beyond B. Michaud's to Cap
Original where we botanized for two or three hours.

We then came back to the two areas east of Cap and
collected there or in the vicinity.
