A regular night watch to take hourly observations of aurora, 
to look after the mules and to keep in the fires was also kept. 
Since our numbers were so much reduced the men were asked to 
take their nights, and to this they cheerfully agreed. We num- 
bered altogether thirteen souls in the hut. Weekly lectures were 
arranged to be given by the various officers, and instead of con- 
fining these to merely scientific subjects, other items of interest 
were lectured upon.
