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.
