Route: via 301 to Richmond, U.S. 1 via Washington
to somewhat beyond College Park, Md. for the night.
Picked up more sets of viscosum — just across the Virginia
line & just north of Richmond. They type localities at
Hyattsville, Md., are apparently hopeless. There is probably no
swamp left without it's building development in the middle.
Color forms, moreover would be scarcely findable at this
season.

Thursday, August 2, 1951

Via U.S. 1 to Phila. A last collection just S. of Elkton,
Md. where it is abundant along a small stream. Lunch
at Swarthmore with H. Wood & back by about 2:00 p.m.

Monday, August 6, 1951

Left Phila. about 7:30 a.m. & travelled to N.J. via Pa. 73,
the Tacony P. & N.J. 341 & U.S. 30. A properly
confusing set of viscosum collected near Chesilhurst, &
another proceeding north on U.S. 206 near Atsion. A
third just S. of Milltown & with this on N.Y. City
on U.S. 1 to Darien, Conn., for the night.

Tuesday, August 7, 1951

Route: U.S. 1 to Providence, U.S. 6 & Mass. 28 via
Buzzards Bay & Falmouth to Woods Hole. Collected very
mixed viscosum just w. of New London but did not get to
Woods Hole in time to more than look at the at Dr.
Schramm's house — just about past bloom with no intact
flowers left.

Called the Wigleys from Buzzards Bay & took the 7:45
ferry to Martha's Vineyard, staying with them for the night.

Wednesday, August 8, 1951

All day on Martha's Vineyard & a drenching day. In the
a.m. drove to Tea Lane in West Tisbury to look up
George Graves. On Tea Lane made a mass collection
of viscosum which is very plentiful in the moist fields &
woods. Several plants were in flower & pieces were dug
for testing in Philadelphia. Stayed indoors in the
afternoon — to dry off & attended a concert in the evening.

Thursday, August 9, 1951

Caught the 8:15 ferry back to Woods Hole. Dug a plant
at Dr.Schramm's & took Mass. 28 NE from
Falmouth, turning back on Mass. 151 towards Buzzards
Bay & getting a fine mass collection not far along.
About 8 large plants were still in good bloom — one
with quantities of buds yet to open. Obtained several
plants. Viscosum here borders the small ponds
toward the center of the cape.

Made slow progress through New Bedford &
Providence & stayed near Hampton on U.S. 6 for the
night.

Friday, August 10, 1951

Route: Via U.S. 6, through Danbury, Peekskill, Port Jervis
& Milford, then Penn. 507 to S. Sterling for the
night. Good collections of something resembling a.
arborescens in a swamp in a swamp in the Palisades Interstate Park &
swamps of the Poconos along the way.

Saturday, August 11, 1951

The day around S. Sterling with the Harry Woods,
taking in collections of the same arborescens — viscosum
complex at the head of Paupack Lake in the morning.

Sunday, August 12, 1951

Return to Philadelphia via U.S. 209 via Lehighton,
Tamaqua to Pottsville, Pa. 443, 83, U.S. 22 & Pa. 934
& 72 via Schuykill Haven, Schubert, Annville &
Lebanon to Cornwall & the Penna. Turnpike.
After considerable searching finally turned up but
one collection of rather poor viscosum not far from
Cornwall on the Horseshoe Trail in Lebanon Co.,
Pa. Arrived back in Chestnut Hill about
8:30 p.m.
