Then Mr. Kermode motored us up to the summit of Mt. Tolmie - named for Dr. John Tolmie, of the Hudson Bay Co., stationed for a time (about 1835) at Fort Vancouver, and for whom Townsend was the Tolmie Warbler. The top of the "mount" is exposed hard rock, deeply glacier scored from the north; its sides are clothed with tany oaks and extensive thickets of broom. Then we went out to Kermode's home in country extensively grown to vegetables: Crows in scores; Oregon Spotted Towhees along roadside hedges; Seattle Bewick Wren in a berry patch; and Meadowlarks singing in cultivate fields. Then out to a Sound-side lookout whence on the water toward San Juan Islands, we saw nearby roofs of Scoters, some Scaups, Western Grebes, and more distant waterbirds in considerable numbers Went near the base of "Cedar Hill"
