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.

Sawyer married last night. Rec'd the Dartmouth and Eng. News. Colbert took Johnson and I out to chow with Mr. and Mrs. Freeman from back in God's country. Supper tasted better than any meal I have had since I was home last February. Wrote to Boston this A.M. Will be glad to get out to-morrow. Hot as blazes all day.
