Mon. Jan. 14th
Took three ranges of soundings and got in early. Rained in P.M. Got cablegram saying that Party # would be here Wed. morning.
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.
