April 81. 1905.
The Copenhagen authorities had Oh
tanned their information in a dispatch
from Lerwick. Scotland. which also re
lated that Dr. Cook was returning from
the polar seas on the steamship Hans
Egede. bound for Denmark.
Dr. Cook, who was surgeon OF the
first Peary arctic expedition and who

On his return 10 North Sydney from
