day:

After one of the most delightful
trips of my life across the Atlantic,
am indeed glad once more to see the
come from the pole | have brought
my story and my data with me. The
public has already tangible and 4
specific record of that trip. In a very
short time the narrative with all the
observations will be published and
placed before the world for examina =
ton. 1t is as easy for you as for me-
to understand why | cannot. on the
impulse of the moment, read off a
manuscript which covers the work ~
two years. AS said upon several Oc-
casions, all the charges, and expires
SiOns of disbelief are based upon en-
tire ignorance of the supplementary
data which | possess. No one who has
written or spoken on the subject in
opposition to my claims knows of thE
facts with which such work of ex-
ploration is measured. All of the
criticisms have been based upon OBJ
ViOus errors in the reproductions of
my first dispatch or upon the discus.
sions of petty side issues presented by
unfair critics.
The expedition was private. It was
started out without the usual public
bombast. John r. Bradley furnish a,l
the money and I shaped the destiny Of
the venture. For the time being it
concerned us only, but the results
were so important that on returning !
at once placed before the public a re
port containing the main outline Of
the work. | have not come home to
enter into arguments with one man on
with so men, but | am here to present
a clear record of a piece of work over
which | have a right to display GER
tain amount of pride. When scientists
study the detailed observations and the
narrative in it's consecutive order,
am certain that in the due course vi
events, all will be compelled to admit
the truth of my statements.
Il am perfectly willing to abide By
the final verdict of this record by com
petent judges. That must be the las,
word in the discussion and that alone
can satisfy me and the public.
Furthermore. not only will my re-
port be before you in black and white
but will also bring to America human
witnesses to prove that | have beer
