25th June 1941. 

After three fine days a depression arrived this morning with some rain & wind (SW) but cleared about 11 AM., so rode in afternoon to Glenasmole & found it almost quite dry & sheltered, with many small insects out.  Swept till 4.30 when just after tea a heavy thunder-like shower ended collecting for the day.  Only swept two areas: -

[78 from 1 & 42 from 2 mounted & these labelled 7/11/43 et seq. A.W.S.]

Glenasmole Co. DU. 
1 = plantation on W. side of lower reservoir from dam to hut, mostly nearer dam than hut: an area I dont usually work.
2 = under trees & by swampy place at "tunnel" (where pipe comes out of upper dam) & for 100 yards below dam (i.e from dam to nearly 1/2 way to ford) & along both sides of dry water-channel, beside laurel hedge.
