Fair after being cloudy in the A. M. Got up
early at Little Cascapedia and worked on plants.
Sent trunks to depot about 9.00 A. M. and a
little later we all went there. Waited over an
hour at New Richmond for train. At Carleton
we encountered a large excursion party from
Campbellton. Many drunken toughs were with them
and they had a fight out in the yard of the hotel.
Mr. Cullen (with whom we are stopping) has let
half his house to a family. We had our trunks
put in a vacant store adjoining the hotel.
Worked most of P. M. putting away plants. At
5.00 P. M. Miss Waring, Williams, Fernald, and
I went in bathing. In the evening sat on the
store piazza and watched the bonfire on the shore
of the bay in front of the house.
