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.

Hot all day. Had some rough topography way up in the woods. Seems like we never would get out of this valley. We have been here two weeks to-day trying to find a way out. We thought our line to-day would carry us out but it is in good and we may have to go clear back to Cadiz.
