Between Oak Hill and Lgruta nearly all the
land is swamp replete with palms. The mayor
are occupied by the palms and then one islands
of palms. On the higher land again the forses
occupy the land. These swamps do not seem
to be salt water muskes but lack drainage.
Wherein the ground a thorn of appears the
white sand. Just how much oleomeros material
there is in it I do not know.
Near City Point and Crossa me again se
much white sand at the surface that below is
a light yall mist. It was so clear much
farther north. The tenaros at times are here
more distinct than those seen this morning. I
examined the sand Rockledge and found it a
glue quartz sand coarse and less rounded
than at Joddenville.
