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.

Ran 5 ½ miles, breaking the record. Barber moved the camp to the Bago River but we missed connections with him and had the pleasure of making supper of rice and fish and sleeping on the bare floor of a barrio school house. These fly by night trips not all they are cracked up to be.
