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.

Sunday June 3rd



Between Shanghai and Hong-Kong. Getting rather warm; sure directly overhead at noon. Lovely warm moon-light night, stayed on deck enjoying it until quite late. Ways and Means Committee considering the financial affairs of the party, which look pretty dubious at present. Wrote a letter to Couley. Due in Hong-Kong Tuesday.
