On the Ice Near the Ship. 
The oscillations were performed in the snow-hut in which the magnetic 
observations had been carried out. The iron cross for the pendulum appa- 
ratus was placed on the ice itself, to which it froze so firmly, that the bubble 
of the level did not move as much as one division. The pendulum oscillated 
from about NW to SE, the direction being determined by the compass on board 
and the bearings of the stand. The angle made by the plane of oscillation 
with the diametral plane of the vessel measured 39° + 2°. The position was 
the same on the three days, the 8th, 10th and 11th June. The pendulum 
clock Hawelk was compared with the chronometer Frodsham.
