navigator of the Italia, started to
walk toward land that seemed only

Yet the Russian aviator, Chukh-

ment at least two of them were
alive. Only 20 miles distant the
Russian ice-breaker Krassin was
attempting to batter its way to the
main group from the Inflated ex-
pedition. The three who elected to
walk to land evidently did not get
far before being forced to drift as
fate marooned them on a flow of
pack ice. Later, when after
enormous effort the Krassin reached
the party it was found that DR..
Malmgren had died but the other
two were alive.
Chukhnoysky was attempting TO
Spy out a route for the krassin
which at that time was unable TO
make further progress against the
ice. tpon news being brought by the
aviator regarding the marooned men
the ship succeeded in reaching them.
