Sent off our heavy Baggage early, Breakfasted at 8, and set out in the Carriage with Mrs. M. at 1/2 past 9 o'clock. -- We halted at the Place we formerly did to take a second view of "Pitts Amphitheatre", with which we were again very much gratified.

Mrs. M. and myself rode on Horseback from the 35th.Mile to the 28th.Mile, or Second Dept, where we arrived at 1/2 past 1 p.m. -- dis[tan]ce. 13 miles from Black-Heath. The 2d Dept is situated in [a] very extensive pretty Valley, with a sum of very fine fresh good water, with tolerable good Feed for Cattle, and is exactly halfway between Emu Ford and the Cox River. I have this day named this place "Jamison's Valley" in honor of Sir Jno. Jamison one of our Party on the present Tour. --Dined at the usual Hour and went to Bed early.
