We present Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) and Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) observations of the interstellar absorption along the sight line toward the bright LMC star HD 269676 (Sk -71 45, R113), which is located approximately 2 degrees South of 30 Doradus. Absorption due to multiple interstellar features is detected in the LMC as well as the Galactic disk and halo -- including numerous lines of species arising primarily in neutral gas (such as C I, O I, Ar I, Si II, P II, S II, Fe II, and Ni II as well as H2), as well as lines which sample highly ionized gas (such as C IV, O VI and Si IV). By combining these STIS E140M (1150--1730 Angstroms) and FUSE (900--1187 Angstrom) spectra with high resolution ground-based (AAT and ESO) observations of Na I and archival IUE observations of this star, we explore the physical conditions in the multiple interstellar clouds along this line-of-sight.
