  1. A man, of pure Indian blood, said I was worth murdering . Your entire safety in this country depends upon your companion
  2. Purchased a very perfect head of a Megatherium for a few shillings
  3. Beginning my return in a direct line to M. Video
  4. Saw the operation of mounting a perfectly wild horse. They were too fat to fight much
  5. With much trouble extracted a few broken fragments of the Maegatherium
  6. Heard of some giants bones, which are likely to be those of the Megatherium http://tinyurl.com/yhn5nw7
  7. Rode to a Rancho; master not at home, but we entered the house, made a fire to cook some beef, & were quite at home in a strangers house
  8. The R. Negro is the most picturesque I have seen in this country. It is rapid & tortuous, about twice as large as the Severn at Shrewsbury
  9. To the Sierra del Pedro flaco about 20 miles up the R. Negro
  10. The heat of the Sun makes the fatigue of galloping excessive
  11. The R. Negro is a fine river blue water & running stream; it is nearly as large as its namesake to the South
  12. Ridiong to the Capella Nueva today
  13. I spent the day in geologising
  14. Arrived at the Estancia of the Berquelo, near Mercedes
  15. The Pampas thistle is often higher than the crown of the head of the rider. To leave the road for a yard is out of the question
  16. The geological nature of the country is here different from the rest of the province. The whole country may be called one great bed
  17. The conversation at the Estancia tonight is rather amusing. As usual, there is unbounded astonishment at the globe being round
  18. Tried to find a Jaguar; saw fresh tracks & trees against which they sharpen their claws: the bark was grooved by scratches a yard long
  19. Passed the town of las Vacas
  20. The chief trouble with an Estancia is driving all the cattle twice a week to a central spot, in order to make them tame & to count them
