8 a.m.
ta ! Scafell Pike , old man , keep yourself warm . I 'll leave you my _ Daily News _ , in case you want it . 8 a.m. -- Been all this time getting half-way down . Can scarcely crawl . Going up hill 's nothing , but the bumping you get coming down , when you 're as stiff as a poker , and coughing like an old horse , is a caution . Had a good mind to ask a shepherd I met half an hour ago to give me a leg down , but did n't like to ; so I told him I 'd just been to the top to see the sunrise , and it was a fine morning .
