Remarks

["I took the 7 A.M. train from Boston and met Rev. Thos. Morong at Natick. We were armed with botanical boxes, rubber boots & lunch. I had besides my press. We walked to Natick swamp some mile and a half and there put on our rubber boots and entered the swamp. It is an immense quaking bog covering with a growth of Kalmia angustifolia, Gaylussacia dumosa Andromeda ligustrina & polifolia, Cassandra calyculata Vaccinium corymbosum with Acer rubrum, Cupressus thyoides, Abies nigra, Pinus Strobus, Betula alba var. populifolia, Cornus sericea, Larix Americana. We spent two hours in the swamp" W. Deane Journal]
