whaling fleet in the arctic regions, and OF
the likelihood that nearly 800 men, com
posing the officers and crews of the fleet,
would perish from hunger unless sue
cor could reach them early in the spring.
The revenue cutter Bear was known
to be en- route from the Arctic Ocean
10 Puget Sound Washington. Her ar
rival was anxiously awaited. as no other
suitable Government vessel could be
made available for arctic work. That
ship arrived at Seattle. Wash, on the
9th of November, after six months
cruise in the Arctics. and at once or
dered an expedition prepared for the re-
lief of the imperiled whalemen.
