1 July - Sunday. Fine day with Good breeze from E or ENR. Mr. + Miss Findon and I got away from Walham at 10.45 a.m. Set main- sail and jib as soon as we were clear of the island, steadying the boat though perhaps not increasing our rate. Between Crown Prince and Dog Islands the motor stop- ped. After an hour or more of work without discovering the cause of the difficulty the engine started up again. Arrived Egedesminde ca 6.30 p.m. and found "Ceres" there, she having gotten in yesterday. Boat came over to us from her with First Mate Balle, brother to Probst Balle here,
