furnished us with light and fuel, with
whlch to warm our scanty allowance of
food. Through the darkness of the
ARCTIC winter, in the latter part of Feb
ruary, We lived principally upon birds.
and In March commenced catching seals: :
through that month, we supported our.
selves on bears and seals flesh, wasting
neither skin nor entrails. We collected
enough food in this way to last until the
middle OF May, had we not been driven
to sea by strong Westerly gale, in the
latter part of March, our Zoe piece
being then reduced from five miles in
circumfcrence to about twenty yards in
diameter. We left the piece on the 1st
OF april, and abandoned nearly all our
meat, large amount of ammunition.
clothing, skins and other articles, taking
portion of the meat in the boat, which
We wero cb!;ge! to throw overheard. on
account OF the boats being 80 deeply
laden. l regaiced the outer edge of the
pack OF ice on the 3D. OF April, aud
succeeded in getting little further In
on the pack. On the 4th OF that month.
heavy Northeast gale set in, heavy
sea running under the ice, which broke
1t IN small. pieces; SO we had to live on
small pans, as We could not put tho boat
out; neither could we find seals for food.
and we we're reduced almost to starya-
ton. On the 21st of April, We sighted
polar bear. Every person was ordered
TO lie down aud initiate seal, while two
Esquimau1 secreted themselves behind
q piece OF ice. On getting the bear
near enough. We killed him. A few DAYS
after We got our boat in water, and We
worked our way West and South. west.
and continued to work every opportunity
to the Westward, in hopes OF reaching
Labrador coast, and getting temporary
relief. We were picked up by the steam.
snip Iigress on the 30th Of April, in
