3rd & 4th November 1833

Montevideo
After a long passage, arrived at M: Video; I went on board the Beagle: Was astonished to hear we were not to sail till the beginning of December: the cause of this great delay was the necessity of finishing all charts, the materials for which had been collected by the Schooners.

Arrived at Monte Video the 4th went on board Beagle.
