autograph album. We saw Miss Marsh on this occas- 

 ion, and renewed our acquaintance with Miss Blackwell 

 and Miss Trueman. We guests saw, too, the Circula- 

 ting Library which the Dwight-Wiman Club had in 

 years gone by provided for the use of the settlers near 

 this point. And a very sensible, serviceable present it 

 had proved, furnishing needed mental pabulum for those 

 whoise toils and privations had left scant room or time 

 to provide means of mental recreation for themselves.

Monday, 13th October. 



WILDEST, windiest, most snowy-looking morning 

 yet. The whole firmament was a packed mass 

 of drift, hurrying off north-westward, as if to surround 

 and welcome old, hoary winter on the downward trip 

 from his Arctic home. The night had been less than 

 usually comfortable because of the rain which dripped 

 from the low-pitched roof upon some of the party, caus- 

 ing a hasty moving of cots and placing of rubber sheets 

 in the semi-darkness. After a little re- arrangement of 

 * watches,' caused by Hedley's enforced departure at 

 mid-day, the programme was fixed as under : —
