Sunday 15th of September 1793, 22 Miles from Danville found a sort of _Tragia_, a _monoecian_ Plant, fructification in the manner of the _Euphorbias_. Shortly before reaching Beardstown recognized the rocks and stones of calcareous substances possessing all the forms of the Madrepores. The tops of the Mountains (hills) one has to cross, 3 or 4 Miles before reaching Beardstown, consist entirely of these petrified madrepores. Recognized many Plants not found elsewhere: _Fagara_ of the State of New York; _Rhamnus_ (_Carolinian_) and _Rhamnus_ ... etc etc. The neighborhood would be very interesting for a Botanist to visit. Dined at Beardstown[37] and slept 6 miles further. _31 Miles._ The country between Beardstown and Louisville possesses no interest for a Botanist. The 16th arrived at Louisville having traveled by the new road.[38] _29 Miles._ In all 79 Miles from Danville. The 17th of September visited General Clarke. I handed him the Letters from the Minister and informed him of the object of my Mission. He told me that he was very eager for the Undertaking but that, although he had written so long ago, he had received no answer and thought it had been abandoned.[39] I told him that his Letter had fallen into other hands and that the Minister had received it only indirectly after his arrival in Philadelphia. He informed me that a fresh circumstance seemed to oppose an obstacle to it.[40] The 18th remained at Louisville and herborised. The 19th returned to visit General Clarke.... The 20th started from Louisville, passed by General Clarke’s[41] and passed on to sleep near Salt river. The 21st passed by Beardstown. _Evonimus ramulis quadrangulis capsulis muricatis._[42] Sunday September 22nd arrived once more at Danville at 5 o’clock in the evening. Wrote to Minister Genet the same day by the Philadelphia Post.[43] The 23rd I rested. The 24th started for Lexington and slept at the Kentuckey river crossing. The 25th found that my horse had wandered away. I slept at an inn where there was no Stable; my horse jumped over the fence and I spent the whole day looking for him. While so engaged I saw on the sandy beaches: _Iresine celosioides_; _Mollugo verticillata_; On the rocks; _Heuchera Americana_; _Asplenium rhyzophorum_; _Pteris nova_; _Parietaria_ ...; _Hydrangea arborescens_. On the limestone mountains: _Serratula_ 2 unknown species; _Cuphea viscosa_; _Didynamia gymnosperma novum genus_; _Didynamia angiosperma novum genus_. On the bank of the Dickson river, _Dirca palustris_; _Sophora floribus coerulis_. In the shady forests etc: _Acer foliis argenteis an rubrum_? _Acer saccharum_; _Fraxinus foliolis subintegris_, _Fraxinus foliolis serratis ramis quadrangularis_; _Gleditsia triacanthos_; _Guilandina dioica_, _Robinia pseudo-acacia_; _Evonimus ramulis subrotundis_, _capsulis laevibus_.
