Land in sight; a very high mountain a long way off tothe south.east.
September
The mountain is bigger and clearer but still a long way off. Gulls again today for the first time since I don‘t know how long.
September
Caught some fish and had them for dinner. Dropped anchor at about p.m. in three fathoms of water ina bay of this mountainous island. That idiot Caspian wouldn’t let us go ashore because it was getting dark and he was afraid of savages and wild beasts. Extra water ration tonight.
What awaited them on this island was going to concern Eustace more than anyone else, but it cannot be told in his words because after September he forgot about keeping his diary for a long time.
