incredible sufferings. The last OF the
provisions were consumed when twenty

For ten days after their return the men
were in a deb.ltated condition, troubled
with swollen feet and legs, shortness OF

on which he relied. He suffered terrible
hardshlps because Of this loss. and came
rather unpleasantly near repeating the
experiences OF the Greeley expedition.
A short narrative of Peary's latest Green
land expedition is of absorbing interest.
After the return OF the Falcon in 1891. he
reached his headquarters at the head OF
Bowdoln Bay September s. He had some
500 pounds OF provisions. Several deer
and twenty walrus were killed in hunt
Ing expeditions. September was cold and
stormy. On october the bay was frozen
over.
An expedition was dispatched to find
the provisions catched by Peary the pre-
v.ous winter on the inland ice. 1t re-
turned in four days, reporting that an ex-
traordinary depth Of snow had complete
" hidden the catches. 'eary then, with
Hensel and an Eskimo made an effort
10 find the catches. II 5 caught In
terrible storm, the Esh iea u, and
after ten days Of suffer Ig and prlvaton
he was forced TO give up the provisions
as lost. All of his pemmlcan. compressed
pea soup, alcohol, biscuit and milk. in all
a ton and half, were gone. He felt like
a sailor cast away on desolate shore.
With unfaltering courage. however. ths
party prepared to carry out the object OF
the expedition.
The winter was spent in shooting deer.
meking sledge trips. and preparing Tor
the expedition over the inland ice An
expedition to Cape York was made with
great difficulty and danger,
The sun reappeared on February II,
1895. Every possible Preparation was
made for the trip ever the inland ice. On
Monday, April l. the expedition lef: me
lodge at Bowdoin Bay, consisting OF
Peary, Lee, Henson, six Eskimos, and
sixty three dogs Some time was spent
in searching for the lost supplies. with
the result that one cache was discovered
which added TO the stock OF rat!ons.
Three Eskimos. with sledge ana ten
dogs, started back. while Peary and tho
rest of the party pushed on with three
sledges and forty dogs A violent wind
storm was encountered. which nearly
buried the expedition in terrific drifts
