resumed before the Jeanette board of in
quiry this morning his narrative of the retreat
across the ice after the sinking of the Jean
nette. He was asked, "Was it your opinion
at the time of leaving the ship that the pre-
paratIons made for retreat were the best that
could have been made. III not, in what respect
IN your Judgment were the plans inefficient
and your reasons for so thinking?
Any opinion and Judgment AFT the time
was that too much was carried both of proyi-
sions and clothing. / thought at the time il
was best to reduce everything to a minimum Of
weight, to carry 90 days provisions and strike
south as rapidly as possible for the Asiatic
coast water
Q.-With the exception you have noted were
all the preparation adequate and sufficient?
A.-No each boat should have been proyi-
ded in anticipation of a separation in the way
OF compass sextant, almanic and logarithmic
tables
Q.-Were the articles you have mentioned
in the Jeannette and was their absence from
the boats intentional or the result of oversight?
A.-1 ne artlcles were in the Jeanette and
IN October, 1879, box was prepared for each
boat to contain full set of everything that
might lie required for their payigation. This
was done with list of articles specified by
the captain, the boxes and boat compasses
were slowed in the starboard chart room ready
Ior immediate use. | do not know that the
articles we're intentionally left on the ship on
the afternoon of June IL, 1881 Prismatic
compasses were always kept hanging in the
chart room ready for immediate use and we're
taken that day.
Q;-How did the provisions actually taken
hold out?
A.-They held out for more than s5 days on
the ration established and at times the penn
mican ration was increased after the bread sup
ply had given out.
