| Back | _Note_.—Three things I wanted exceedingly for this work—viz. a pickaxe, a shovel, and a wheelbarrow or basket; so I desisted from my work, and began to consider how to supply that want, and make me some tools. As for the pickaxe, I made use of the iron crows, which were proper enough, though heavy; but the next thing was a shovel or spade; this was so absolutely necessary, that, indeed, I could do nothing effectually without it; but what kind of one to make I knew not. |

| Front | Nota: necesitaba tres cosas para realizar esta tarea, a saber, un pico, una pala y una carretilla o cesto. Detuve el trabajo para pensar en la forma de suplir esta necesidad y hacerme unas herramientas; utilicé las barras de hierro como pico y funcionaron bastante bien aunque eran pesadas; lo siguiente era una pala u horca, que era tan absolutamente imprescindible, que no podía hacer nada sin ella; mas no sabía cómo hacerme una. |
