The pathetic outcome Of that expe-
dition, is one OF. the famed romances OF
history. Every schoo1boy is familiar
with. the details and the surmise and
conjecture that exist to this day as to
whatever became of the leader and his
men.
The expedition left England May 10,
1S45. It was. last seen at Bafin's bay.
The survivors abandoned the vessel
and are thought to have perished in an
attempt to reach the American main
land.
But others hold the theory that they
did not die, but came to the settle
ments of some friend]y* people, perhaps
yet unknown to the rest of the world,
tn ere intermarried, and with their de-
scendants, such as are spared, may be
living there to this day.
The theory may be far-fetched, but
it gains confirmation from the fact
that fifteen relief expeditions have

the excellent equipment with which
those conducting the experiments
have had to work.

the feed lots is a 144-foot corn crib
