pages contained notes on weather con-
ditions of ice floes and other memoran-

Clark wrote.
Clark said he learned that the lone
occupant of the igloo was a wanderer
of the wilderness. He had been with
the Cook expedition, he indicated-one
of the few who stayed with the explor-

billiards., thinned by scanty provisions
and forced to turn back when the dogs
went bad.

the note book and other articles and

Tho Rixfords are prominent
New England family-especially
prominent in the Revolution. There
seems to be no doubt of the fact
that they are an offshoot Of the
Rexford family prominent in Con-

surname from a place namo. with
the significance Of Kings bridge
The first record of any spelling of
the name Rixford was William RlX-
ford, who was in Midway. Mass
That year he married Amy Thayer
in Mendon. He was at the Lexing-
ton Alarm in 1875 and served as a
Minute man. His children were
Elizabeth. William. Samuel. Henry
and Simon. born in Midway, and
Anna, Phoebe, Samuel. Elijah (died
in infancy, Joseph and Elijah, all
born in Grafton.
The eldest son Of these, william,
was Revolutionary soldier. 1t is
said that he went to Winchester.

ten acres Of land. Then he returned
