We had a big hunt for him , and could n't find him ; and I am very much obliged to the gentleman that shot him . Very likely we shall not see another one for a year . '' The gentleman walked with us to the landing , and waited there till the Wetumpka was out of sight . At five o'clock in the afternoon we entered Lake Griffin , which I judged to be about ten miles long , and moored at Leesburg in season for supper . This place is the county-town of Sumter County , and the head of navigation by the Ocklawaha . One end of the town was on Lake Hawkins , and there were a dozen lakes within a few miles of it . We found nothing very different from what we had seen .
