Report on the Danmark expedition to the north-east coast. 51 



mittee for the Danmark Expedition and that it must be expressly 

 stated, that the results obtained are due to the Danmark Expedition. 



The right to give public, popular lectures on the Expedition is 

 reserved to the leader for the first 6 months after the return. Purely- 

 scientific or special lectures and lectures of quite a private character 

 may, however, be given at any time with the consent of the Committee; 

 but no lecture of any kind whatsoever may be held until after the 

 lecture of the leader of the Expedition before the Royal Danish Geo- 

 graphical Society. 



§ 6. 



Should the leader be prevented from acting as such, the Second- 

 in-command of the Expedition and the Captain of the vessel, First- 

 lieutenant Trolle, will become the leader of the Expedition. Other- 

 wise the leader is free to settle who shall take his place in case of ac- 

 cident. Should the Expedition, however, come to be without a leader, 

 the members will choose one for themselves. The decision will be 

 arrived at by all the members by simple vote and the one chosen will 

 occupy in every respect the same position as that held by the leader 

 of the Expedition according to the present contract. 



§ 7- 



In the event that I . . . fail to be present on the departure of the 

 Expedition or do anything in any way in contravention of this agree- 

 ment, the leader of the Expedition is entitled to take such measures 

 as may seem to him most suited to the occasion. 



On the other hand, if I should feel myself in any way injured by 

 the leader of the Expedition, 1 am entitled to make a complaint in 

 writing and the complaint will be entered in the archives of the Ex- 

 pedition. On returning home both parties may lay all subjects of 

 dispute before the Committee of the Danmark Expedition, who will 

 make the final decision, in so far as the Committee may not deem it 

 advisable to have legal judgment on the matter. 



All disputes arising between members of the Expedition, in which 

 the leader himself is not concerned, are to be settled definitely by 

 him, whether alone or — if he should think it right — in conjunction 

 with one or several of the other members of the Expedition. In ques- 

 tions concerning the captain of the ship, however, the ordinary mari- 

 time rules and regulations apply. 



§ 8. 

 Should there be any disagreement on any point between the 

 above terms and the engagement contract entered into by me . . . the 

 present agreement holds good. 



All questions of doubt regarding the interpretation of this con- 

 tract are to be decided in the end by the Committee of the Danmark
