gave birth to a son. the first white
child born in America. They named
him Snorri, after his grandfather. He
lived and thrived and was nearly
three years old when he first saw Ice

large number of the bishops and other
high church dignitaries of Iceland
claimed descent from Snorri Karl

was cold and shore ice formed so that
they could not fish Food was scarce
for a time, but finely the weather
broke and they We're able to catch
fish enough to supply their wants.
During the time food was scarce they
found a stranded whale and tried
eating whale meat, but it made them
sick.
After their experience on the Maine
coast karlsefni decided to go farther
south, and accordingly. set sail. How
far they went we do not know. but ii
was evidently south of Cape Cod that
they spent the second winter The

for long time, until they came al
last to a river, which flowed down
from the land into a lake. and so into
the sea. There were great bars al
the mouth of the river, so that il
could only be entered at the height OF
the flood tide. Karlsefni and his mer

Traded With the Indians.
To any one familiar with the coast
south of Cape Cod the place should
be easy to identify. They traded with
the Skrellings, by which name they
evidently meant Indians 1t was the
same sort of trailing that is carried
on today with primitive peoples, the
exchange of bright colored cloth for
furs. When the cloth began TO run
short they divided it into smaller
pieces and found they could get as
much for it as for the larger pieces
They got on very well with the In
dams for a long time, but finally
Karlsefni's bull frightened the In
dians, and they ran away, and when
they came back they came to tlght.
After pitched battle, in which two
of Karlsefni's men were killed, as
well as quite a number of Indians, the
Indians retreated.
Thorhall and Huntsman had wan
dered away and Karlsefni set out IN
one ship to find him. They sailed
northward around keelness, and then
bore westward, having land to the lar
board. The country there was a
wooded wilderness as far as they
could see, with scarcely an opeT
space: and when they had journeyed
a considerable distance, river flowed
down from the east toward the west

age OF the cargo, which when the
ship was laden, was protected by
skins or some similar substitute for
tarpaulins. The vessel was provided
with a single mast, and was propelled
by rude square sail, and was sup
piled with oars. The rudder was at
tached to the side of the ship, upon
the starboard quarter, and the an
Choir, originally of stone, was after
ward supplanted by one of iron, some
what similar in form to those now in
use.
TuXen, reasoning from a compari-
son of a vessel of this size with the
ship unearthed at the farm of COX
stad, north of Sandefiord, Norway, in
1880, concludes that such a "knoor'
would have been somewhat over AZ
feet long, with breadth of beam Of
from Is to 10 feet" 1t can be readily
seen that two such vessels could not
carry as much furniture as is claim
ed to have been brought over in the

Discovered Maine Coast.
Early in the spring they sailed, and
IDey SOON came 10 d lduu CONelcu WIN
flat stones, which they called HelIur-
land. They next came to well wood
/ ed land, which they called Markland.
! They then sailed several days and
came to long sandy shore, which
| they named Wonderstrand. Every
one is allowed to guess where these
/ places may be. Sable island answers
the description, and a thousand years
ago it was probably more of wonder
! than it is today. These early yoyag
ers certainly noticed the unusual, for
they record that they next came to a
shore very much indented with bays
This was evidently the Maine coast
! for there is but on other shore line
! like it in the world. Here they sent
some people ashore and they came
! back bearing grapes and wild wheat
! Somewhere along the Maine coas
| they stood into bay. There was al
| island out at the mouth of the bay
about which there were strong cur
rents, wherefore they call it Strau
amey (Stream isle). They sailed
=, through the firth and called it Stratum
ford (Streamfirth). They decided Il
stay here, so they carried their good:
ashore and built some kind of a shell
ter for themselves and their cattle
The Maine coast looked good to then
in the late summer, as it does today.
