M'miLLAN TURNS BACK.
At night Marvin and Borup came
spinning in with their men and dogs
steaming in the bitter air like =
squadron Of battleships. Their arrival
relieved me of all anxiety as to our
oil supply.
In the morning discovered that
MacMillan's foot was badly frost bit
ten. The mishap had occurred two
or three days before. but Macmillan
had said nothing about 1t in the hope
that 1t would come out all right.
A glance at the injury showed me
that the only thing was to send him
back to Cape Columbia at once. The
arrival Of Marvin and Borup enabled
me to spare sufficient men and dogs
to 90 back with him.
LOSS 10 SERIOUS ONE.
This early loss of Macmillan was
seriously disappointing to me. He had
a sledge all the way from Cape Col
umbia. and with his enthusiasm and
the powers and physique Of the trained
athlete / had confidence in him for at
least the seth parallel. but there was
no alternative.
The best sledges and dogs were &C.
ected and the sledge loads brought up

depth Of 325 fathoms.

and as had surmised, the successive
leads crossed in the fifth and sixth
marches composed the big lead and
marked the continual shelf.
On leaving the camp the expedition
comprised 16 men, 10 sledges and 100
dogs The next march was satisfac-
tory as regards distance and the char
acter Of the going. In the latter part
there were pronounced movements in
the ice, both visible and audible.
Some leads were crossed, in one of
which Borup and his team took q
bath, and we were finally stopped by
an impracticable lead opening in front
of US. We camped in a temperature
Of so degrees below.

MAKE READY FOR DASH.
BY February 81 such of the Caps

brought up to Cape Columbia, the
dogs were rested and double rationed
and harnessed, and the sledges and
other gear overhauled.
Four months of northerly winds
during the fall and winter instead OIL
southerly ones, as during the previous
season, led me to expect less oper
water than before, but a great deal o.
rough ice, and was prepared to hev
a road through the jagged ice for the
first hundred miles or SO. then cross
the big lead.
BARTLETT LEADS THE WAY.
On the last day of February Bart
lett, with his pioneer division, accom-
plished this, and his division got ava.
due north over the ice on March /
The rest Of the party got away OF
Bartlett's trail, and followed an hou
later.
The party now comprised sevel
members of the expedition, II Eskl

Eskimo and seven dogs had gone t
pieces.
A strong easterly wind, driftin

and smashed two beyond repair, tn

At our position at the end Of the
second march. Marvin obtained sat

weather. which placed US at s5.4S. The
result agreed satisfactorily with the
dead reckoning of Marvin, Bartlett
and myself.
Up to this time, the slight altitude
Of the sun had made 1t not worth
while to waste time in observations.
On the next two marches the going
improved, and we covered good dis
tances. In one of these marches a

which gave the position as s6.38 Cor
beyond the farthest north Of hansen
and Abruzzi), and showed that we had
covered so minutes of latitude In three
marches.
In these three marches we had
passed the Norwegian record of 1914,
by Nansen, and the Italian record of
1884, by Cagni.
From this point Marvin turned back
in command of the third supporting
party. My last words to him were:
BE careful of the leads, my boy"
The party from this point comprised
nine men, seven sledges, and 60 dogs.
The conditions at this camp and the

level ice in very direction reminded
me of Cagni's description of his farth-
