28   Oct 29th 1879.
Nothing of special incident has occurred the past three days. We have made another 
camp below desolation camp & I have collected a lot of fine fossils and also added to the measured section. Have taken several hand climbs up the canon walls but cannot get to the top yet. Tomorrow I propose searching for fossils & next day moving out & up above all the bad places. On our way up here we passed the hole where old Billy set me in the water. Tonight I write lying on my side, head [[bolstered up?]]. A boil on the knob of the neck is under full head[[?]]
