FOOTNOTES: [Footnote 66: A Yorkshire farmer unconsciously adapts the German _Wolkenbruch_, declaring on occasion that the rain is so heavy, it is 'ommust as if a clood had brussen someweers.'] [Footnote 67: I tried the hay in this chalet one night, with such results that the next time I slept there, two years after, I preferred a combination of planks.] [Footnote 68: _i.e._ New milk, warm.] [Footnote 69: Otherwise graphically called _battu_.] [Footnote 70: I had no means of determining the elevation of the ground.
The fact of 12 feet of snow is of no value as a guide to the height.
Last winter (1864-5) there was 26 feet of snow on the Jura, at a height of less than 4,000 feet, and the position of some of the larger chalets was only marked by a slight boss on the plane surface.] [Footnote 71: In the section of the cave, I have brought out the deeper pit from the side into the middle, so as to show both in one section: I have also slightly shaded the pits, instead of leaving them blank like shafts in the rock.] [Footnote 72: I have made arrangements for completing the exploration of this cave, and the one which is next described, in the course of the present summer.] * * * * *.
