Set up abt 6 A.M. after a bad nights rest

5-6 A.M. The wind is again rising from
the south so we are bound to this place

of the Jupiter delta is the same one as

Did not stop to collect here.

E 3 gives way to harder beds = E. 4. The
fossils are very scarce here, the commonest one
being Onercerias, being still farther east
we comes to two brooks one (the most eastern
one) a pretty riffing gravel face. Between
