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.

Wednesday 6th




Hot all day. The "Teau" is a small boat, about 2000 tons and rolls considerably so most of the fellows were sick all day. We are traveling 2nd class and have a deck all to ourselves so can lie around and enjoy live. Pretty sunset and fine moonlight night. Slept on deck.
