South Greenland, Il gentleman OF eminent sci
entfc abilities, who has done much to further
investigations in the unknown country OF the

been heard from the expedition under DR.. Hayes
since it left Ure!navjc. There was, however. a
VAGUE rumor that Groenlanders from one of the

some white men on the loose ice with dogs and
sledges. Attempts are said to have been made

on account of the accumulation OF new ice
