Grand Greve Aug 19 Saturday Hired Mr. Isaac's brother as a guide to Cape Bon Ami. Walked down the trail to a place called George's Cove and then by foot path of the stream to the top of the cliffs. Over the edge of the cliff is a sort of gulch an inclined plane was built to take of nature. Along this one climbs down to the Cape where there is quite a shelf and when they were stood a house. From this great level level we can descend to the beach in either di- rection. Walked along the beach towards the "portage" to note though another of birds & but saw not one of a frond beyond some rusty divines marvellous dust off of plants. On the top of the Cape picked of me found either a coral or a bogrom epitheria. Cauda-galli were also seen. From Cape Bon Ami down to Ship Head from 5, 6 and 7 miles of the cliffs. The strata lie in shallow undulations with a tendency for bed 5 to disappear beneath the surface.
