SUMMARY:
Halt at Chayul; in the afternoon Danona and Fienduh arrived after traveling via Lo La and Bimbi La to Migyitun, reporting snow on the passes. Problems with headmen at Migyitun and Chuchar over demands for loshas, while seed collecting was largely successful though several desired gentians were unripe or snow-covered at Tsobumang, Zundali, Kyimpu, and Lo La.

Chayul
2nd November. Halt: Another perfect day, clouded all night. Tsomp-
I walked about half way to Cyandro, expecting to meet Danona
Fienduh, but as there was no sign of them by 10, we returned,
and prepared to stay another day. However they turned up soon
after 2:00 pm, and we have got through all we had to here, and are
off tomorrow. As far as I have made out so far, they had
good weather to the Lo La, where there was an inch of snow.
When they left there snow fell heavily. They returned by
the Bimbi La, then down to Migyitun. There was no coolie
trouble anywhere but at Migyitun and Chuchar. Halt.
Migyitun has been arrested and taken to Kyimdong Dzong for
not paying rents. I'm not sorry, as they were snobs. The Chuchar
'sort' of a headman, who calls himself Dzongpen, demanded
loshas, and would produce no one unless they paid. Of seeds, they
seem to have got a good show and it includes most of the
wanted things with the exception of a number of badly
wanted gentians. The white C. from Tsobumang was under feet
of snow. The blue 2592 from Zundali was not ripe, the
little blue one from Kyimpu was never shown to them, and the
C. amoena from the Lo La is not ripe or all eaten by bugs.
