1927 Hacienda Zapotitan, Depto la libertad, Salvador June 1 - 3, 1927- from El Tablon Lake Guija to San Salvador then to Hacienda Zapotilan. June 4, 1927- sick. Unable to get away from camp. June 5, 1927- Sick. One of the miradonas brought me in a Potos, No. 12984 Z which he shot at duck in the heavy sub-tropical jungle just at dusk. June 6, 1927- Unable to get out. June 7, 1927- "Damn the luck." June 8, 1927- went out with steel traps anyway, I set eight steel traps on an in the Rio Sucio , in likely places for lutra and Chironectes. June 9, 1927- One of the boys brought me in a Chironectes, No. 12985 which he said I had cought in a trap that I had set in about three inches of water close to the bank. In the States I would have called the set a good one for a Musk rat.
