After being informed of the boys
narrative thus far, Commander Peary
suggested series of questions to be
put to the boys In regard to this trip
from the land out and back to it,
Did they cross many open leads or
much open water during this time
Ans. None.
Did they make any caches out on
the ice? Ans. No.
With how many sedges did they
start7 Ans. Two.
How many dogs did they have7 Ans.
Did not remember exactly, but some
thing over twenty.
How many sIedges did they have
when they got back to iand7 Ans.
Two.
Did they have any provisions left on
their sIedges when they came back to
land? Ans. Yes; the sledges still had
about all they could carry, so they
were able to take but a few things
from the cache.
From here they went southwest
along the northwest coast Of Heiberg
Land to point indicated on the map
From here they went west across
the ice, which was level and covered
with snow, offering good going, to a
low island which they had seen from
the shore Of Heiberg Land at Cape
Northwest. On this island they
camped for one sleep.
From this island they could see two
lands beyond (sverdrup's EIIef Ring
nes and Amund Rinenes Lands). From
the island they journeyed toward the
| left-hand one Of these two lands
| (Amund Ringes Land), passing a
small Island which they did not visit.
Arriving at the shore Of Amund
| Ringnes Land, the Eskimos killed a
deer as indicated on the chart.
The above portion Of the state
ment of the Eskimo boys covers
the period of time In. which Dr.. Cook
claims to have gone to the pole and
back. and the entire time during
which he could possibly have made
any attempts to go to It.
II it is suggested that perhaps Or.
Cook got mixed and that he reached
the pole, or thought he did, between
the time Of leaving the northwest
coast Of Heiberg Land at Cape North
west. and his arrival at Ringnes Land
where they killed the deer, we must
then add to the date Of Or. Cooks let
ter Of March 18th, at or near Cape
Thomas Hubbard the subsequent four
or five sleeps at that point, and the
number Of days required to march
from Cape Thomas Hubbard to Cape
Northwest Ia distance of some sixty
nautical miles), which would advance
his date Of departure from the land
to at least the 25th Of March, and bs
prepared to accept the claim, that DR.
Cook went from Cape Northwest

/ grees north} to the pole. a distance o'

five hundred and seventy geographical
miles, In twenty-seven days.
After killing the deer they then ,trav-
eled south along the east side of Ring
mes Land to the point indicated on the
chart. where they killed another deer.
They then went east across the
south part of Crown Prince Gustav
sea to the south end Of Heiberg Land,
then down through Norwegian bay,
where they secured some bears. but
not until after they had killed some of
their dogs. to the east side of Gra-
ham Island; then eastward to the lit
tie bay marked "Eids Fiord" on Sver-
drup's chart; then southwest to Hell's
Gate and Simmons peninsula.
Here for the first time during the
entire journey, except as already
noted off Cape Thomas H. Hubbard.
they encountered open water. On this
point the boys were clear. emphatic.
and unshakable. They spent a good
deal of time in this region and finally
abandoned their dogs and one sledge.

to North Kent, up into Norfolk Inlet.
then back along the north coast of
Colin Archer Peninsula to Cape Vera,
where they obtained fresh elder duck
eggs Here they cut the remaining
sledge off. that is shortened it. as 1t
was awkward to transport with the
boat. and near here they killed wal
rus.
From Cape Vera they went on down
into the southwest angle of Jones
Sound, where they killed seal:
| thence east along the south coast OF
the sound, killing three bears at the
point noted on the map, to the PENN
| sula known as Cape Sparbo on the
map, about midway on the south side
of Jones Sound Here they killed
some musk-oxen and, continuing east
| killed four more at the place indi-
Gated on the chart. and were finally
stopped by the pack ice at the mouth
of Jones Sound. From here they
turned back to Cape Sparbo. where
| they wintered and killed many musk
oxen.
After the sun returned in 1909 they
started. pushing their sledge, across
Jones Sound to Cape Tennyson; thence
along the coast to Clarence Head
| (passing inside of two small islands
not shown on the chart, but drawn on
1t by the boys). where they killed a
bear; thence across the broad blight
| in the coast to Cadogan Fiord; thence
around Cape Isabella and up to Com
rhander Peary's old house in Payer
Harbor near Cape Sabine. where they
found seal cached for them by Pan

here they crossed Smith Sound on the
ice, arriving at Anoratok.

1t developed that DR.. Cook had told
these boys, as he told Mr.. Whitney
and Billy Pritchard. the cabin boy.
Peary or any of us anything about
their journey, and the boys stated Dr.
Cook had threatened them II they
should tell anything.
The narrative of these Eskimos is
as follows:
They. with DR.. Cook. Francke and
nine other Eskimos, left Anoratok.
crossed Smiths Sound to Cape Sabine,
slept in Commander Peary's old house
in Payer Harbor. then went through
Rice strait to Buchanan bay. After a
few marches Francke and three Eski-
mos returned to Anoratok

ceeded up Flagler bay, branch of
Buchanan bay. and crossed Elles-

the head of Flagler bay. indicated by
Commander Peary in 1898, and utilized
by Sverdrup in 1899. to the head of
Sverdrup's Bay Fiord" on the west
side of Ellesmere Land
Their route then lay out through
this ford, thence north through Sver-
drup's 'Heuerka Sound" and Nansen
strait
On their way they killed musk oxen
and bear, and made caches. arriving
eventually at point on the west side
of Nansen strait tshore of Axel Hei.

Cape Thomas Hubbard
A cache was formed here and the
four Eskimos did not go beyond this
point. Two others. Koolootingwah and
| Inughito, went on one more march
with Dr. Cook and the two boys
helped to build the snow igloo then
returned without sleeping.
(These two Eskimos brought back
a letter from DR.. Cook to Francke
dated the seventeenth of March. The
two men rejoined the other four mer
who had been left behind. and the ST,

Francke himself. and was known te
us in the summer of 1908. when the

information is inserted here as supple
mentary to the narrative of the two
boys.)
