trip. my plans essentially the same,
but | will profit by the lessons of that
last trip
Last time We would have reached
the pole but for the easterly ice drifts.
This time We shall take advantage of
the drift just as a bOetmRn rowing up

he wishes 70 land.
Last trip I left Grant Land and
Cape Morse. This time we shall 70
farther west by land. leaving IL al
Cape Columbia. and instead OF heading
directly north. will head northwest
thus getting the benefit of the easterly
drift OF the ice. OF which nothing was
known until our last expedition.
Another change Is that will have
stronger advance party than on the
last trip. 50 that when we get ready
for the final dash there will be sledges
and supplies enough. Last time there
was not enough 10 load five sledges
The party will also be more compact.
and therefore safer when storms come
