ferocious appetites during all the long
sojourn in the north, each man eating
with relish three meals of animal food
and two lunches every day, and craving
fat, though not to the extent some
arctic travellers report. AS a means tc
fortify the system against cold or brace
it up for forced marches, whisky, rum,
