 summer the expedition travelled outside the inhabited district — 

 few illnesses of course appearing within so short time.

 the Danish people living at the station. That all resorted to 

 me to consult me in old and new, considerable and incon- 

 siderable cases of illness when the population had begun 

 to realize what a doctor is, and that I was a doctor, is no 

 wonder, there having been no one before on the coast. The 

 East-Greenlanders are on the whole a sound and strong race, 

 well adapted to hold their own in the rough climate and under 

 the bad hygienic conditions caused by the stowing of the rela-

 where ventilation and cleaning are so to speak unknown. The 

 temperature will often rise to more than 30° C. in the afternoon 

 and evening in such a winter-house when all inhabitants are 

 at home and all train-oil lamps are lighted, while the tempe-
