and was then assigned to the Brooklyn.
With this ship he participated in the

Kotzebue sound, where he went last
April, on the schooner Marion from San

He says the voyage north with 81 men
aboard was something terrible. Farms
worth's party became disguised with
prospecting In August and returned to
Kotzebue, where they found 500 hungry
and for the most part penniless prospec-
tors living in tents.
Farnsworth says not one in ten had
money to pay his return passage, and
not one in so had supplies for the win
ter. Among them were several dozen
women and children suffering for food.
Farnsworth thinks the Red Cross So
