The snow-full may be put (17)
[illegible] down as being about 12" for
this storm. Drifting snow in
good shape. Let it go! It can't
go too rapidly for either us or
the Eskimos, the meat supply
being already low. Panik-puk
is out of oil as well as meat.
Akweeahgoodlak brought her
baby over this evening in spite of
wind and drift. He looked cute e-
nough in his little fur bag,
but he is almost destitute of clothing.

Several kamatics started for Wee-
aurk-la-han-ri for meat this morn-
ing and I rode out 1 1/2 mi. with
Sammise, walking back through
rather laborious footing. The Eski-
mos were expecting to go overland
some of the way on account
of bad ice and spend at least
me night away. They don't like
the idea of having no food for
their guests, above all things.
