Copenhasen says that Mrs. Rasmussen, wife OF
Knus Rasmussen. who was associated with Dr
Cook in Greenland, has received a letter from her
husband by the steamer Hans Egede. The explorer
writes:
I never was so much moved in my life as by the
success OF Cook. for l hoped 10 carry off TINS

Mrs Rasmussen said that her husband always
had been OF the opinion that Esquimaus alone could
reach the pole and that he believed Dr. Cook had
succeeded because he managed TO live like the

Dr. Cock explained that Sverdrup had spent years
tn the difficult and inglorious task OF mapping the
polar regions II was by following the indications
on the maps OF Sverdrup that he was able to find
