the worm of the drum also con. /114 waked up the time registry and set it off at work. Kept "blue flame" lamp burn- ing under the clock. Work all day, but has extinguished it for to-night. Out for an hour's walk before our noon dinner. Wind very strong in middle of fjord. This morning got harnessed my pups, four of them, for the first time, using the reeother as a leader. The team started off and went all right after a little trouble in harnessing; the pups following the reether willingly. After nine this evening Kahda rushed in stark naked - the boy had apparently been left alone in the igloo next door after he had turned in for the night. He came awoken here an hour before gone back with Ahminah and the rest. Pretty cool inside and cold out doors for the "altogether"! Wore my rabbit skin stockings for first time this fall. Have been using two pair of woolen socks and an inner pair of kamikles for some months, as being more comfortable during the warmer weather. Have been looking over Cook's "Voy- atteainment of the Pole" this evening. It is filled with false and misleading statements and visions lies. It seems a pity not to publish a book exposing and refuting them. 20 October. Friday. 8a -1; 12m, 3°; 4p, 6°; 8p, 6; 12h, 5°; min -10.8° C3, N3; O, N1; Misty SE2; B, W3; B, W4. max 6.
