WE ARRIVE AT EAST CAPE 
263 
in the various arangas that we passed, we finally 
reached Emma Town, a few miles to the southwest 
of East Cape, at about six p. m. The second stage 
of our journey from Wrangell Island was over. 
We had been thirty-seven days on the march and 
probably had actually travelled about seven hun¬ 
dred miles, all but the last part of the way on foot. 
There now remained the question of transporta¬ 
tion to Alaska, and the sooner I was able to ar¬ 
range for that the better.
