July 30, 1905, Sunday Clear. Spent most of A. M. drying driers and changing them. In the P. M. put plants collected yesterday in press. Packed trunks and sent off a box of plants to Cambridge. In the evening walked about wharf a while and then went aboard Str. "Gaspesien". Watched the "Lady Eileen" (ladies aboard [?]) sail and then as it was very cold went below. July 31. 1905, Monday Clear. Got up on Str. "Gaspesien" at about 4.30 and went on deck. Stopped there most of the A.M. enjoying the scenery. Reached Mt. Louis and went to the bargeman's house (Mr. Bushier). In the P. M. and again in evening we walked out and examined cliffs, etc., for plants. Did not seem to find a single characteristic plant and we were much disappointed. Talked some of driving to Ste. Anne des Monts and saw Mr Robinson about it. Later decided to go in barge if sea and wind were favorable. August 1, 1905, Tuesday Cloudy, windy, and cold. Walked to post office after breakfast at Mont/ Louis and At-Mont-Marie I learned that a letter addressed to me had been delivered to Mr. Alan G. Cameron, Superintendent of Mont/Marie Seigniory, so called at his house and got it. We started about 8.00 A. M. in a barge with Mr./Bushier and another man for Ste. Anne des Monts. We were practically becalmed for an hour near Pt. de Chasse. The rest of the way we had a good fair wind.
