and the collecting was good in the dung. From here we followed along 2A thru' St Thomas, [[strikethrough]] & [[/strikethrough]] St James and St Peters. We turned east near Black Bess then along the foothills to Farley Hill near 1B. We came down to Cock Crow Rock where we stopped. It is quite an interesting place with part of a ruined wall there. We came home along 2 and had lunch under the trees near Welchman's Hall. We got home fairly early, and as we felt like a swim we went down to the Aquatic.

This is one of the nicest locations I've seen, for a church, and the church itself is well worth seeing. From here we drove along by Clifton Hall, Edge Cliff, and Easy Hall to Route 3, then along this road to a place a little beyond Chimborazo. Then we went across to Bloomsbury, Caledonia & Canefield. Here we were told that we would be unable to get over into St Andrews, altho' the map shows some roads. Being natural-born doubters we decided to try it. Our first attempt to find a road landed us up on a mountain top, where the road unceremoniously ended. However our second attempt met with success. 
  Here I must digress a little to speak of the "red legs". Most of them are ^[[insertion]] descendents of the [[/insertion]] followers of Monmouth who, after the Battle of Sedgemoor (1685), were tried at the Bloody Assize by Judge Jeffries, & sent to Barbados. Most of them are to be found in St Andrews
