Remarks

["This A.M. I took the train at Cambridge Station for So. Acton, meeting J. R. Churchill on the cars. At Concord Junction we met Mr. Joyce who was our guide through the day. Mr. J. has lived for many years in Acton and Concord and he knows every inch of the country for miles around. He has also a wide knowlede of plants. . . We botanized on Big Hill which lies in the town. Deep woods cover the sides and top and we found a good many very choice plants. Mr. Joyce knows where they all grow and he took us readily to them."
