In «The Ingolf-Expedition», first Volume no. i, Pages 18—20, under the Article « Current-bottles- 

 an account will be found of the throwing overboard of current-bottles, the place of throwing, de- 

 scription of the bottles and the landing-place of those bottles, which had been found, when the Article 

 was printed. 



Since that time 4 bottles more have been found and there is not much probability, that others 

 will appear, so we may suppose, that the time to analyze the obtained result has come. There is the 

 more reason to believe this, as the bottles already found have diverged very little in their course and 

 the appearance of more bottles will hardly have any influence on the result. The following table 

 indicates the course of the bottles found.
