"Well, then, I will bid you good-night here, I think," Theron remarked, coming to a halt, and offering his hand. "It must be getting very late, and my that is I have to be up particularly early tomorrow. So good-night; I hope you will be feeling ever so much better in spirits in the morning." "Oh, that doesn't matter," replied the girl, listlessly.

Cunningham and three men carrying my theodolite, sextant, and barometer, I ascended a summit at the southern extremity of Harvey's range, and which I had observed particularly from Mount Juson as being the most eligible point to form, in connection with that range, a base for extending the survey westward.
