Tuesday 27th.
Mrs. M. and myself being both a little indisposed after our late fatigues, and our Servants and Horses requiring some rest, we remained quietly at home since our return from St. Andrews on the 22d Instant to get well enough against our next excursion.
This forenoon we sent off our Servants, Tents, and other Baggage, together with a small Boat belonging to our Nephew Ensn. Maclaine, to meet us on Doctor Jamieson's Farm, in the Evan District, on the Right Bank of the Nepean; intending to follow them thither ourselves early tomorrow morning in the Carriage by a more circuitous route, in order to see all the intermediate Farms in that District situated on the Banks of the South Creek, previous to our proceeding to explore the new or Western River lately discovered by Mr. Evans the Depy. Surveyor in that part of the Country; for which last purpose I have sent Mr. Maclaine's Boat on this day to the Nepean River.----
