This Camp was 77 dogs. 66 mins. North and we landed next Day on it a Point Distant about 14 Miles about 78 North and 117 West.

Through the accidental spilling of fuel Oil i had a _ Send a sled from Cape Alfred Back to Kot Lett for More Oil and waited for them 320.000 from Captain Lane and bought also the Power boat Aiada nor. A Small vessel engaged in Trad inc along the const. After fully equipping these vessels Stefansson sailed with them for Banks land. Whom to probably is now. It probably is the intention of.

The sled went Down after our last dog reached the. Trong ice Ort Tho far Side of the Lead and we finally got the sled and Tho Oad though they were soaking wet. Encountered much open water.

On Juno 22 geese and other Birds had arrived and Tho Rivers were breaking out. Discovered some Small islands Between Melville Island and Tho new land took formal Possession of these lands and left n record of discovery. We followed the West coast of Mel Ville Island South crossed to the Bay of mercy and stayed there from july 14 to july 20 to rate the pocket chronometers and provide new packs for the dogs. We cached the sled at Mcclure s wintering Placa and travelled diagonally across Banks Island to Kellett arriving Home on aug. Find everything Well.1 in this trip we had no Accident Stefansson to establish a base on Banks land and continue his cd poor Nylon from that Point. The time of the return of Tho expedition cannot to foretold As Stefansson intends to continue until he has fully cd Tho limits of the new land to has he will also seek other no hardships discovered new lands. With characteristic modesty Stef Ansson told capt. Cottlo that except during a few Days before reaching Banks land to and his to o compan ions suffered no although on very Short rations Dur ing Tho entire seven months on the ice they always had enough food to keep hunger away. They never missed s meal during the whole journey which was More than Stefansson could say of some of his former arc Fly journeys. This time he and his companions. Lived seven months on food designed to lost three months Engineer died. Captain Cottlo reports that the Southern party of which or. Rudolph Anderson. Of Iowa. Is com i Mander there was so much open other than Tho wetting of one sled we could Mako let to Progress for it in tend took us three hours to ferry across a boo Yard wide lend. We made the journey improvised by pass ing tarpaulins under Tho sleds and lashing them upon the sides. Such n raft carries a thousand pounds when the water is not rough and less if there is a rough wind. Tho thirteen dogs t were especially troublesome. The weather was ret Ting warmer fast and the Ico was broken into Small pieces with water or mashed up Ico Between i there fore gave up further attempts of going West and travelled parallel to the West coast of Prince Patrick Island.

It wan Neces sary for counsel to take him step by step Over the ground tit where he clearly understood what desired to never hesitated and apparently told All to knew. Once or twice the court cautioned him to state facts and not conclusions. On the whole to proved a Good witness. Horwood repeated with a wealth of illuminating detail what he Bald at Minneapolis. He testified that Simpson. Ofter him about Campaign got in touch Wlton or Montague and the result won tone the minister instructed him to let the doctor fix Tho Moo Dot within Epson. Tho witness told of an in Erslew he had with coldwoll., at which the latter agreed that the Best Ila co to take Tho fund from would to the caissons. Or.

It was during the sessions of the Public accounts committee Hor Wood went to see found him shaving. What shall i do it they ask me about that inquired. Blurt was the reply.
