SUMMARY OF RESULTS. 
871 
Depth, 2450 fathoms ; deposit, Red Clay, containing 6 ‘8 6 per cent, of carbonate 
of lime (see Murray and Renard, Deep-Sea Deposits Chall. Exp.). 
At 5 A.M. got up steam. At 5.30 a.m. shortened and furled sails, and proceeded under 
steam. At 6 a.m. sounded in 2450 fathoms. Obtained serial temperatures down to 
1500 fathoms. The wind changed to a favourable quarter, and the trawling was post- 
poned to a future day. At 9.40 a.m. completed temperatures and made all plain sail 
northwards. Petrels {Puffinus opisthomelas), Tachypetes, and Phsethon were seen. 
Distance at noon from Guam Island, 660 miles. Made good 69 miles. Amount of 
current 28 miles, direction S. 84° W.
