[[/marginalia]] Saw two plants of [[underlined]] Lycopodium clavatum [[/underlined]] by rushy swampy spot just inside the outer rampart at N. side of the hill, alt., ca., 1,200 feet. Collected some insects in shelter of hedge along the old road on W. side of hill, 1 1/4 miles N. of Battinglass & below former site of "Baltinglass Covert" of 1" Ord.
