I sleped but little last night however we rose early and
commenc[e]d wrighting our letters Capt Lewis wrote one to
the presidend[31]

Kentucky and Sent of[f] George Drewyer with those letters
to Kohoka & delivered them to Mr. Hays &c. we dined with
Mr. Chotoux to day, and after dinner went to a store and
purchased some clothes, which we gave to a Tayler and derected
to be made. Cap

all his papers wet, and some seeds spoiled.
