SIR LOuN


The Rev. Thomas Iiurlburt of Ro>svillc Mission.

has found traces Of Sir John Franklin. One Of our

his familv happy by his safe return. His name is Thos.
Mastitukwim. had Il long tnlk with him nn thc sub

Journey, aud their winicrimg III n SHOW house, where
they rad six weeks nf constant; night. In March last
they started OH the ice TO the North, nnd were thirty
seven days on their Northern journey. They were
no mics beyond the region inhabited 10y the EsTui-
luaux, but where they still found the trucks nf the
mu-k-nx.
"Sjr John mud his party ARC dead; hnt perhaps one
or two of tho men NAV be- still alive and among 'he
E-iuimaux. Sir Johns watch, all in pieces, with his
silver spoons, knives and forks, We're found. The
SHIP was a great god-scnd TO these people, and they
now all have good sleds, spears, cnnocs, &c, 81 oak
wood. DR.. Ray aud pnrty did not fcc amy "f the re-
mnius Of Sir John and his party; but the Esquimaux
blanket over him and his gun by his side. The pro.
bah lily is, that il is not more than two or three years
since the party persisted OF hunger"

Although l shall not be able to DO present on the
