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.

Tuesday 29th



Fine day. Worked in A.M. In P.M. went to another ball game with the Jap school. We won 2-5 owing to the masterly pitching of Davis who struck out 15 men. In the evening two of the teachers known as the "Cherry Sisters" appeared on the street in kimonos. Added to the other crimes they had committed this was too much and the bunch caught them and ducked them in the bay. They called the police and there was a devil of a time generally.
