JULY 3.

In the morning we went up Sleet (?) Creek, which we followed a mile or

so up a ravine, and after descending the other side of the mountain, we

reached what is called Goose Creek, a distance of about ten miles. This

part of the day's drive was bad. In the afternoon we proceeded up Goose

Creek about twelve miles. This stream is about six yards wide and the

valley is narrow; grass good. Weather hot. Distance, twenty-two miles.
