He turned out to be both old & thin. Cut out his tongue & started back for Camp. Found the distance about 6. m. & everyone too lazy to go out for the meat. Had it been in better condition would have made a point of sending for it.
Afternoon packed all dry plants. Changed damp ones. Capt. A. arrived this evening.

Geol. In all the CoulÈs through which passed today about this point same rocks observed. Sandstones no doubt of lower portion of Lig. Tert. of probably same zone as seen in Milk R. & possibly same as Roche Percée. Very similar to those of latter place in character. Perhaps about 30 feet thick in all. Upper layers weathering into all sorts of fantastic castillated shapes along the edges of the bank. This upper portion rather massive in bedding. Lower parts very regularly stratified, sometimes in very thin layers & showing worm tracks & other obscure markings! They appear to be perfectly horizontal.
Below them more impervious beds of sandy clays &c clays turning out springs of water, but nowhere clearly visible.
