Sunday July 24 - 1910. Anse au Loup. Another grind on and foggy day ahead. Apparently we are bound for another day, Into a little to Rose. About noon concluded to tally the steamer home to Flaman Core. We expected her by noon or soon after but due to the dense fog she did not arrive until 6 P.M. Mr. Barney took us out to the steamer. Although it is only 10 miles across to Flaman Core we go over as far as Planche Jallon and then across the Straits. Fare @ 2£. The Steamer is a small one and yet of considerable size. Appears to be a comfortable boat. Expect to fit to Flaman Core in the morning. The elder Mrs. Barney has also come aboard to go to Fortiam for a few days, Monday July 25 - 1910 Flaman Core. We lay until morning (about 4 A.M.) at Anse au Loup due to the fog and then started westward in it. At 7.30 we are at Planche Jallon but on account of the fog can not see the shore. We lay in front of Flaman Core from 10 to 11.45 on account of the fog and are then moved ashore fully two miles. Set on shore at 12.30. Puts at Mrs. Normans trading house.
