June 6. Got up early, cooked my breakfast, packed things on to Spoopendyke, & started down the mountain as the sun came up. Reached Strattens ranch at 9 oclock & had a social chat after an 8 days solitude. Arrived at Oracle at 3 P.M. & found they had planned to go after me tomorrow. I intended to stay a week but was away 10 days. Rode mule back for 30 miles & down 4000 feet of mountain. Took 9 solid hours of slow riding. Have been troubled all of the time with my old complaint & felt weak & not like crowding work very hard, otherwise I could have accomplished more. Cool, wore a coat all day.
