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.

Tues. 17th


Ran F-line. Leveled 100 stations. Rained all day and the wind blew hard. At night it developed into a typhoon and the old shack nearly blew down. We got soaking wet and lost coming back to camp.
