In the North Pacific very light winds prevailed;
and no ice was seen ; east of Cape Horn the WI";
was westerly and northerly. No south-east traid,,;
were met with until the ship reached latitude 1t44
south—a very unusual circumstance. In the Nor„,,,
Atlantic the wind veered from north-east to Ora
cast. During the voyage there was a long per°
—32 days—of very light weather; on manY occa-
sions the rate of sailing was then only two kn°t
an hour. On the 6th of April a boy named Jalned
Taylor fell overboard from the ship's channels,
an
was drowned.
