Today we buried Sgt. Floyd Bluff. Capt. Clark said he was vomiting violently and suffering extreme pain. The different types of medication we gave him did not seem to work at all and the next day Sgt Floyd died a sorrow filled death. Sgt Floyd Bluff died August 20th 1804 and was buried on a hill overlooking the Missouri river. Captain Lewis read from the Bible and marked his grave. Captain Clark was blaming himself for the Death of Sgt. Floyd but there was nothing that we could do about it. We took a vote for a new Sergeant and moved on towards the Pacific ocean.
