July 1 made very small complete oval in morning with sun? in 2° ? then a second & not complete oval.—; then from (about 1° 45 to 4° 5' = about 2° 20') a third still more small oval & late in afternoon stood still,

Day cloudy nearly all day, plant in same place for 2 or 3 days. —

July 2d an excessively little oval, with sun, in 2° 20' or 2° 30' for nearly 1°— A 2d minute ellipse, directed in line the line of the Hot-house in about 2° or 2° 15'. — A 3d longer & broader ellipse, (but not quite completed for the shoot moved in another direction) directed obliquely to back of House; took about 2° 15' or 2° 20'

Then I watched a 1/2 circle still more to back of House.— /over
