4 51 16 west of Greenwich. 



(If the times had been noted by 2007, this longitude would be smaller by 2" 22'). 



These time observations at Upernavik I have introduced to show that their 

 tendency is still more to lessen the adopted longitude of Port Foulke, or" else to 

 increase the adopted longitude of Upernavik ; placing but little confidence in the 

 result, I make no further use of it.

* I suspect that the above times were noted by the pocket chronometer, and not by 2007. I have, 

 therefore, subtracted 2" 22' to refer to 2007. 



' On the unrevised track chart of Dr. Kane's the cape, forming the southern promontory of Dobbin 

 Bay, is named after Dr. I. I. Hayes ; but on the chart accompanying Dr. Kane's narrative of his 

 expedition (see Vol. I) the cape appears as Cape Hawks, and the more northern and eastern cape, 

 where Dr. Hayes first made the west coast of Smith Sound, is inscribed with the discoverer's name. 

 This last designation was retained on the Smithsonian chart accompanying the astronomical obser- 

 vations of the Kane expedition, and is adhered to now with the approval of Dr. Hayes.
