Took Shoots of _Calamus aromaticus_ that grows in damp places in the neighborhood of Charlotte and of Lincoln. _Rhus pumila._ Slept near Waxsaw Creek in South Carolina about 35 Miles from Tuck-a-Segee ford. The 6th at the house of Colonel Crawford near Waxsaw Creek: anonymous Plant with leaves _quaternate_, _perfoliate_, _glabrous_, _entire_. This same Plant grows in the Settlements of Cumberland and in Kentuckey. _Frasera foetida._[187] Passed by Hanging Rock; the distance from Waxsaw to Hanging Rock is 22 Miles. To go to Morganton or Burke Court house one should not pass by Charlotte, but take the Road to the left 3½ Miles from Hanging Rock. About 20 Toises after leaving the fork of the two roads (one of which leads to Charlotte) one sees the _Anonymous_[188] shrub with a red root which has the appearance of the _Calycanthus_. This shrub is the one I saw in the vicinity of Morganton. Slept near Hanging Rock. Thursday 7th of April 1796 arrived at Cambden; five or six Miles before arriving there pulled Shoots of a new _Kalmia_ seen some years previously. The distance from Hanging Rock to Cambden is 26 Miles. Friday 8th of April started from Cambden, passed by State’s borough 22 Miles from Cambden and slept at Manchester 30 Miles from Cambden. The 9th my Horses strayed away during the night, having broken the Fence within which they were placed. In the streams: _Callitriche americana_; _fructificatio simplex_, _axillaris sessilis_, _Calyx 2-phyllus_, _stamen unicum_; _filamentum longum_, _latere geminis germen duplex? styli duo longitudine staminis_, _stigmata acuta_. _Silene ... calyx 5-fidus cylindricus_, _corolla Petala 5_ (or _5-partita usque ad basim_) _unguibus angustis_, _laciniis planis apice obtusis_; _Stamina 10 basi corolla inserta_; _Germen oblongum_. _Styli tres_; _stigmata acuta_; _Capsula unilocularis_, _semina plura numerosa_, _flores rosei_.[189] Started in the afternoon and slept at 15 Miles having crossed 10 Miles of sand called Santee High Hills in the space of which observed _Phlox_; _Silene_ ...; _Dianthus_ ... in flower; _Lupinus perennis et pilosus_ in flower. Sunday 10th of April 1796 arrived at the Santee River at the place called Manigault ferry; before arriving there observed _Verbena_ (_aubletia?_) and on the banks of the Santee, _arbor Anonymous_ whose fruit (_muricatis_) covered with soft points, was almost ripe.[190] Manigault ferry is 28 Miles from Manchester. Two miles further on one takes the road to the right called Gaillard road which is shorter than the ordinary road but muddy in winter. Slept at the house of the Widow Stuard 18 Miles from Manigault ferry. Tavern dirty and without a supply of fodder for Horses. The 11th started very early; at a distance of 5 Miles remarked _Lupinus perennis_ and _Lupinus pilosus_ in flower. Distance from Charleston 40 to 43 Miles. Arrived at the garden of the Republic 37 Miles from the Widow Stuard’s that is to say 47 Miles from Charleston.
