WALRUS VEAi OR FOAL. 81 



before; but being a cool, active, and energetic 

 fellow, I tbink there is the making of one in 

 bim. Solomon never will be one as long as be 

 lives. 



Beautiful brigbt morning with west wind. 

 We bave beat back to tbe Thousand Islands 

 during tbe nigbt, as our people suppose tbat 

 tbe great herds of walruses we saw bave gone 

 there. Ice very much dispersed since we were 

 here before. 



Dined upon stewed walrus veal — very good 

 meat, and without the. disagreeable fishy 

 flavour of seal, but slightly insipid. 



Saw no game all day, but one walrus in tbe 

 water. Calm in the evening.
