comfortable trip across the sound of about 35 sea miles to Godhavn. Men fished up a log of driftwood —lower for eight feet of a pine(?) tree about 12" in diam. at the but. Had four Greenland girls as passen- gers. Calm, except for a little easterly breeze as we emerged from the islands near Ejdsminde. some time Reached Godhavn at ca 6.30 p.m. & had cordial welcome "home" from Gv Olsen. Much snow has melted away from Godhavn in past 6 days.
