Page 91 of The Case.

 being born elsewhere than on the rookeries of the 



seal islands in Bering Sea, nor do we know of any Jno. Alexandroff et al, 

 rookeries other than those above mentioned: P- 229 - 



I do not know of any rookery except those on 

 the seal islands of the Bering- Sea. 



Chas. Arery p. 218.
