The Journal of Fletcher Ames Hatch

Being an account of my experience while at work for the Philippine R.R. Co. After you have read these pages, don't talk to me about all engineers having a snap.

If anything happens to me this book is to be sent to my brother Israel Hatch, RD#1, Rockland, Massachusetts, USA.

Fri. Aug 24th



In tall grass and wild bananas all day so thick you couldn't see ten feet either side of the line. About half way between the Tamao River and Jomb-Jomb. Move to-morrow, and by Wednesday night we ought to be in Escalante. No rain to-day.
