Wednesday Oct 22
7 m.
Left at 90 and got to
4ozellits about 1 o'clock
Found all my specimens
sent in from Babud & the
street. Put in the
afternoon overhauling and
fishing.
The train is not running and
I cannot get away until
Thursday.
Mr MacPherson & Babud let
me that 3 years ago there were
quite a number of Deer other about
a large Kelp Flats on the west
coast of 2. Le Polu's rear
and that there are some on
the W coast of Vancouver Is. For
many years they seemed to have
disappeared entirely but for within
recent years become more frequent.
I saw a deer this summer
on the E shore of Little lake about
20 miles below T's Landing.
