through his sailor instinct that
the land was near. 1t was black
dark and raining, a squally south
west wind thrashing the wave
crests into breaking foam. Fear
ing to run any further in the
murk, the boats were hove-to
until daylight, their occupants
buoyed up with the hope which
served to mitigate the agony of
chilled and sodden bodies.
Strong men were grumbling and
whining with the misery of cold,
but stran ely enough, Mary

Craggy peaked headlands rose
precipitously from the sea, their
bases breaking the great combers
of the South Pacific into vast
frothingS of foam which grovled
and Numbered and dashed. high
up on the rocky pedestals. The
sight of the land encouraged the
castaways to express their feel
ings in a half-hearted cheer. Four
days of exposure to cold and wet
had set it's seal upon them.
They ran south for a few miles
seeking an opening and in a
furry of snow the two boats
sailed in between a cluster of
small islands and sea-beaten rocks,
and from thence into a well-de-
fined channel thanked by bold
rugged peaks and headlands soar
ing two thousand feet up to the
cloud mist. Evergreen trees
nestled in the hollows of the crags,
ranging from the stony beaches
to a few hundred feet above the
water level. Many of the higher
peaks were capped with snow, and
snow and ice cleaned white in
the crevices and slopes.
