with Egingwah and Inuaksso. (86
Day was beautiful and we encoun-
tered no obstructing ice. Plenty of
bergs but well spread apart. At
about 5 p.m. we were off Cape Parry
and at 7:50 p.m. we reached Neki-
livit, where we left Egingwah
and took on Tolutinguwah as fog pilot.
Fine snow had been falling during
latter part of afternoon and the hill-
sides were already whitened.
Went ashore and visited with Kolu-
tingwah's family. His wife Tung-
wi (same name as that of the man at U-
lugset), called Tungwingwah by Parry,
is a fine looking motherly woman. Her
daughter Alnaduah is Kudlukto's wife.
Two white whales swam along the
shore passing close to the boat, while we
were on shore. Left topics at 8:30
