  out at Sun rise, & proceeded on to a Bluff below the mouth of Plumb 12 
  yds# Creek on the S# S# and took an obsevation of the Suns Altitude

  This Creek is Small it "abounds with blumbs of a Delicious flavour" the 
  River is wide and Crouded with Sand bars ¬ it is riseing a little but 
  little timber in this Countrey all that is, is on the river in the points. 
  we Came too on the L# Sin the edge of a Plain an Camped for the night ¬ we 
  Saw Some Signs of the two men Shannon & Colter, Shannon appeared to be 
  a head of Colter ¬ The White banks appear to Continu on both sides of 
  the river. Grapes plenty and finely flavered ¬
