 Bred. En Ræv kom frem åf Uren, betragtede os nysgjer- 

 rig, gik oven om rundt om os og saa udover Lagunen. 

 Paa mit Vink havde imidlertid min Ledsager ladet Geværet 

 og rakt mig det. Blandt de fra denne Excursion medbragte 

 Specimina var et i Uren skudt Exemplar af Canis lagopus. 

 Det 3die Exemplar blev skudt af Capt. Wille samme Efter-

 within good range, in a circuit above us. and looked out 

 across the lagoon. I motioned my companion to load and
