Report on the Danmark expedition to tlie north-east coast. 41 



Warming, a man who has taken a large share in the great revival of 

 Greenland exploration during the last decennaries. 



In spite of the splendid example given by Etatsraad Andersen, 

 Mylius-Erichsen would hardly have succeeded in raising the ne- 

 cessary capital, had he not been so fortunate as to come into connec- 

 tion with Consul Erik S. Henius and Consul Valdemar Glückstadt. 



Along with Mylius-Erichsen these gentlemen addressed them- 

 selves to numerous people, who through personal application might take 

 some interest in the matter. Consul Glückstadt especially was untiring 

 in his labours in this direction and Consul Henius later rendered 

 the Expedition good service in other ways. Here the great 

 personal knowledge of these men was very useful to the Expedition 

 and in the beginning of March 1906 the 130,000 Kroner had been 

 raised. Of this sum 40,000 Kroner was a loan free of interest given 

 to the Expedition by the Landmandsbank against the assurance 

 of the vessel. As the vessel bought later, however, was much less 

 costly than had been calculated, the loan was reduced to 15,000 Kroner. 

 Without this great favour shown by the Landmandsbank it would 

 scarcely have been possible to raise the whole 130,000 Kroner. 



As the Parhament had voted the 130,000 Kroner i, a grant that 

 was later increased by 63,500 Kroner^, the Expedition was assured.
