Steffannsson ascribcs the success
of his expedition to the fact that he
took no food supplies, but went into
the country with his rifle. He lived
as the Eskimos did much of the
time among them. Eskimo women
sewed his garments. but otherwise
he needed no aid from Eskimos.
Stefannsson believes that Hubert
Darrell, an Englishman of good fam
lily, who disappeared while on the
A Arrtic . Of nf ri n
river, is dead. He said today:
In September, 1909, Darrell went
to a whaling vessel that was winter
ing at Bailey island. Darrell was quite
alone and was pulling sled. This
way of travelling was not SO fool |
hardy as 1t seems. a man alone in
the Arctic is in peril only when he is !
overtaken by accident or sickness,
Then he is helpless and must perish.
"On leaving the whaler, Darrell
Went southwest to Liverpool bay.

him when he went back to his camp,
which was some distance from the
Eskimo camp but they did not see
him when he left his camp. and they 7
do not know in what direction he
went. He told the Eskimos that he
would return next year to buy furs.
This was his purpose in exploring
he coast, to learn Of the trading pos
sibilities.
Darrell may have gone west along
