GREENLAND. 267 



Departing thus from the Tent, wee rowed towards Coles 

 Parke ; in the way whither, upon the side of a hill, by the 

 sea side, wee espyed seven Deere feeding, Avhereupon pre- 

 sently a-shoarewe went, and with our Dogs kill'd sixe of them ; 

 after which, the weather againe overcasting, wee thought it 

 to little purpose to goe any further at that time, but resolved 

 to hunt all along the side of that hill, and so at night to re- 

 turne unto our Tent. Going thvis along wee kill'd sixe Deere 

 more, which Avee had no sooner done but it began to blow 

 and raine and to be very darke ; whereupon wee hasted to- 

 wards the Tent, there intending to refresh our selves with 

 victuals and with rest for that niglit, and the next day to 

 returne againe to our hunting. This purpose of ours was by 

 the foule weather the next day hindered ; for it fell so blacke, 

 £0 cold, and so windy, that we found it no way fitting for 

 our purpose. Lading therefore our owne Shallop with 

 Beares and Venison, and another Shallop which we there 

 found haled up and left by the Ships Companie, as every 

 yeare they use to doe ; lading this other shallop, I say, with 

 the Graves of the Whales that had beene there boyled this 

 present yeare (which wee there found in heapes flung upon 

 the ground), wee, dividing our selves into two equal com- 

 panies, that is to say, William Fakely, with one Sea-man 

 and two Land-men with him, betaking themselves unto one 

 Shallop, and Edward Pellham, with another Sea-man and 

 two Land-men more with him, going into the other Shallop; 

 wee all committed our selves unto the Sea, intending with 

 the next faire weather to goe to Bell Sownd unto our Tent ; 

 which was the place wee set up our rest upon, to remaine at 

 all the Avinter. 



Towards Bell Sownd therefore we went, Avith a purpose 

 there to lay up our Store of what victuals wee had already 

 gotten together ; and with the next faire winde to come 

 hither againe, to trie if it Avere possible for us there to pro- 

 vide our selves of some more Venison for our Winter provi- 

 sion.
