208 SPORT, TRAVEL, AND ADVENTURE 



It was desperately cold ; I soon discovered that my 

 nose was frozen, and I repaired to the igloos. Here 

 I learned that while the people were with me cele- 

 brating Christmas, the dogs broke into Kudlar's and 

 Kulutinguah's igloos and tore up and destroyed every- 

 thing within reach. They ruined three fine fox -skins 

 that were drying, ate all the fat the two Eskimos had 

 for light and heat, dragged outside all the walrus 

 meat they had to eat, and made away with most of it."
