Port Daniel to Corner-on-the-Beach Sunday Aug 14, 1938. Started northeast at 8.30 A.M. for Redpoint to collect brachiopods, and got a large lot of them. Had lunch at Baie-en and then we collected a large series of igneous rocks for Prof. Knopf. Cloud did it once and told him to make the present. Finally we spent about four hours in the R.R. out at La Vieille, and collected a few fossils. Cloud got another Boreteus. Then at four started for' Port and Corner-on- the-Beach when we arrived at 6.30 P.M. Put up at the Gibert Hotel, but Mrs Gibert died the year I was here last. I am stiff and tired out. Corner of the Beach, Monday Aug 15. Had a very bad night with my stomach out of order that finally went into dysentery. Have no strength and muscles are all painful. Did no work today. Foggy day with some light rain.
