July 7 - Halifax
Philed around town in the morning
and visited the Provincial Museum to see
the Honeyman Collection. There is almost nothing
due of Honeyman excepting a lot of Jaffray's plants
and a very small collection of Canadian mosses.
Honeyman dies suddenly and left much of
his collection unlabeled. On moving this collection
from the Post Office, thirty present shared the enormous
material now with careful array in boxes or dis-
dtributed among the higher schools of N.S.
The best feature of this Museum is its bird
collection and this is small.
In the evening read the history of the
Academy.
July 8 - Halifax
Wrote letter in the morning. Also visited
the citadel.
Visited with Clarke during the late
afternoon on corner. He remained in the
citadel while drove far by rail.
