This is another fine, hot day. I was over to visit John Baird and Fred Jennewine. Fred is getting along fine and expects to be released in a few days, but John Baird is feeling very low and is not very encouraged. I also went down to the bay and gathered a few shells. [Frank] Christopher, [Charles] Lewis and [Max] Hannan are on the sick list.
