12 Sept. 17. The netter Lai came back with a small catch of insects. He caught cold on his way home. He got wet in a heavy shower. I took an anthropometrical measurement, making 90 Chinese males measured to date. Dr. Andrews, a friend from Tatsienlu, passed through Suifu. I will probably take the Tatsienlu trip next year even if Mr. Edgar does not go with me. Sept. 18-23. We have been busy moving into the new house. All my things have had to be moved. Lai, the netter, has been busy moving the Smithsonian things over. I am not yet settled. Sept. 23. We worked here all day moving to our new house. Lai is out tonight with a lantern after night moths. Sept. 26. Lai has been quite sick but has secured some insects. He is better tonight. I expected to get out to the mountain today for a collecting trip, but on account of the sickness of Lai I have postponed it. Sept. 29. Lai has spent the last two nights with the lantern on the Suifu Hills, and is to continue doing so. Today I purchased two mammals, [[underline]]mammals No. 310, 311.[[/underline]] Oct. 2. The netter Lai has been catching moths every night on the nearby mountains, altitude 2,000 feet. He has had fair success for this time of the year. Filled and labelled box no. 438, insects.
