AM  S.E.  very light  [[underlined]] Fine [[/underlined]]
M   S.E.  " " [[dittos for: very light]] Fine
P.M. S.E. " " [[dittos for: very light]] Fine

This Morning not a cloud to be seen.  This I designate [[underlined]] Fine [[/underlined]] (with a line under).  I hope to take lunars to-day as well as make many other obs.
Puto visited me early this Morning, the Kod-lu-nar infant at her back.  I made her some little presents - pipe, Beads, file & Knife for her son, & a small piece of one of the adjuncts of Civilization - Soap!
Somehow I thought it possible that I had made error of one day in keeping run of the days of the month - but the lunar & Sun Distances of yesterday have satisfied me that I was correct.
