Tasiusak, the captain with the sailors
Ole, Erik and Alfred. as well as
Hunter Kristensen, got no farther
next morning than the settlement
Kungmitu, on the east side of Ang-
magsalik Fjord. The Greenlanders
knew perfectly we'll that the ford ice
was cupt mp by currents, but they
thought that the captain wanted to
go only that far.
Our comrades from the ravine ar
rived next afternoon thoroughly froz-

THEN about or 8 o'clock that eve

the settlement The dogs howled and
violent harkings from the distant ice

Strange sleds were coming, but 1t
was impossible to tell where they
came from, as every one was talking
at once. Finally we made cut that It
was the five Angmagsalik sleds which
had turned back because they had
been stopped by open water.
And closely following them were the
sleds of other Greenlanders, with
whom was Knudsen, one OF our rescue
party. He reported that the party,

out difficulty. About noon, however,
when we had gone three or four miles.
the ice suddenly began to rock and we
could see the waves rolling under the
thin surface.
The ice was so uncertain all around
us that the lieutenant was obliged to
make camp on Itivdlisak Island al
though he did not like the idea. When
we had dragged the sleds to a place of
reasonable safety. he went on ahead
to examine the locality. Two men
were sent out to meet the crew com.
ing from Nunakitit and let them know
where we were.
It was quite while before the lieu
tenant returned from his reconnoiter-
ing with the information that there
were poor prospects for camp on
1tivdlisak, but that ne had found a
rocky ledge in the center of the island
which might be possible. We called 1t
the "Ravine' later, and / can hardly
say that we were happy there.
The crew that had been sent to
Nunakitit came back at sunset saying
that they had reached their goal
quickly, after having left the sled
halfway but to their great disap-
pointment they saw no natives. The
settlement had been forsaken long
since, and none of the house sites
showed signs Of use within a year
or two.

watching for seal or catching gray
fish, often longed for the rich game

Naturally our shipwrecked company
looked forward to the Summer with
tense expectancy. Should there be no
ship, as might happen, 1t would go
hard with some of us.
On May %, much earlier than
usual, we say sealer six or eight
miles off the land and evidently
caught in the ice, drifting past Ser

the same was the case with several
other vessels, even though they lay
but fifteen to thirty miles out in the
close packed ice belt.

The gallant ship Teddy, a
schooner equipped with an
auxiliary engine, had sailed
from Denmark bearing twenty
one men whose purpose was to
establish fur stations on the
northeast coast of Greenland.
But the vessel had progressed
but a little way into the Arctic
Circle before. she was beset with
ice, which hemmed her in on all
sides.
There followed a month of
soul.searching experiences, dur
ing which the ship was sub
jected to intense pressure Of
the ice and persistent battering,
by angry foes. Finally, with
the ship in danger of sinking,
the party jumped to an ice-floe.
This was their home for TWEEN
ty-four days, during which they
drifted approximately 460 miles,
an experience surpassed only by
the crew of the German ship
Hansa, similarly beset in 1869.
At one point, dissatisfaction
among the members OF the ex-
petition caused Capt. Bistrup to
resign the command, which was
assumed by Lieutenant Ros-
tock-Jensen. All this has been
recounted by Mr.. Dahl, who
accompanied the expedition rs

two previous articles.

We set up our quarters on the ice
near several big powders which were
showed and iced together until they
afforded a fairly level ground fer the
sleeping bags.
In contrast to our former night
camps, we were now spread out over
considerable ground high UP on the
hill slopes, with quite picturesque
effect. / need not say how much we
enjoyed these firm and rocky sur
roundings, and the realization that
at last we could lie down to sleep
with no fear of being carried off at
express speed into regions of desc
lation.
The talk went back and forth in
the sleeping bags through the radiant
star-bright night, and we began 80.
rfously to discuss the joys that
awaited us when we called upon the
hospitable East Greenlanders, as we
were sure we would do in a very few
days.
On one of the newest maps of this
stretch we had found an Eskimo settle
ment on the little island, Nunakitit,
about eight miles northwest of Jtgerd-
lex. According to the map, this was
the most northerly settlement on the
coast. Our idea was. in case the ice
was strong enough, to send one of the
crews the very next day to ask for
help from these Eskimos.

nothing to do but to stay where we
were for the time being.

our men called out to us that It was
Greeland bear hunter and then we
knew that luck was with us.
The bear hunter now came driving
toward us on his narrow East Green
land sled drawn by FIVE thin, active
dogs. NADIA. this was his name, was
a well built chap, alert and graceful
in eyeryf movement, so that we
heavier-built men in our thick
clothes, felt like herd of elephants
beside tiger cat.
He told us that he was out on the
tracks of a bear and that he came
from a settlement farther up in the
Sermiligak Fjord. He could bring
four other sleds in the course of
fews hours, so that he could take us
all up there that same day. But
after a short council we decided not
to accept this kindly invitation.
We arranged, however. that Chief
Engineer RoSt gard. who had suffered
much from the hardships. should go
back with the Eskimo that he might
sleep under a roof. The rest of us
would stay on the island to try to
get into communication with our
comrades in the ravine before NADIA
came back next day with his friends.
We could not reach them over land.
as we hoped. and the new ice had
grown so heavy during the night that
we could not help them in that direc-
ton.
NEXT morning about ten NADIA re-
turned with four of the other
sleds. The new Greenlanders were
met with the same heartiness, given
lighted pipes even before we intro
duced one another The most impor-
tant of the newcomers was the

others were Manasse. a strong young

1t was arranged that Givskov, one
or our company. and Manasse should
try to reach our seven comrades in
the ravine. AS there was no partic,,.
lar reason for any of us staying on
the island, we all drove back in the
other sleds to UtRrkarmiut, which we
reached about 3 that afternoon.

and Manasse came to the settlement
after a successful trip over the hills
to the ravine, where they had told
our comrades of the good luck for

The Greenlanders thought that the
new ice would be strong enough the
following day for them to drive down
and bring back our comrades in the
ravine. so that we would all be to-
gether again. 1t ell went off well,
and there was only one rift in the
lutte. What had happened to our res
cue party that had gone off TO find
succor? Had they been successful?
That afternoon five bear hunters on
sleds came to Utorkarmiut from
settlement on the Angmagsalik Fjord,
and the captain decided that we
would drive back with them the fol.
lowing day to Angmagsalik. We be.
lieved that this was also the name of
the districts chief settlement, while
the original name for the bay,
