May 3. Bistritz.-- Left Munich at 8:35 P.M., on 1st May, arriving at
Vienna early next morning; should have arrived at 6:46, but train was an
hour late.
June 17, 1816. In the year 17—, having for some time determined
on a journey through countries not hitherto much frequented by travellers, I
set out, accompanied by a friend, whom I shall designate by the name of Augustus
Darvell.
