April 28, 1917 Paced a base line this morning from Petravich to [illegible] points. Took a pound of angles from each point. Boys were nearly all miles kiting for here. Sowed a few but found them very wild. At camp at Culimuddy. Samuel tried a shot at a deal with some kind of bird hard as corn in blood, but he managed to wriggle into hole. Have next time now to the glacier after the meat while I tried for wild bird shots. May 3, 1917 Thursday N 7 Watch 1 sec fast on Band Kammwitz 11-25 P.M. -2.8° F at 10-30 P.M. Delayed in starting from Ethal because of arrival of Ramsuresi supporting party
