No. 369 is omitted, having stopped on the 13th of June. No. 523 also omitted, since being much in use as a pocket watch it was not regularly compared. No. 2109 was worn by Captain 
Parry during an excursion into the interior of Melville Island, from the 1st to the 15th of June. Nos. 367, 377, and 497, were the Griper’s establishment, and were returned to her on the 21st of 
July to be in readiness for Sea. The time was kept by a Transit Instrument at the Observatory.
