about 3 p.m. Hendrik Olesen and Tobias (/6 and robs of subtervis Gabrielsen brought over lumber to begin re- fining the roof on "our" house. I was then going through the victrola records, inven- torying them, and about 4 o'clock the men knocked off their work(?) and came in to listen to the music. The Eskimos like music to a surprising degree. Ek and Dr. were hunting all afternoon, they came in shortly after 6 o'clock without any mjjik or frisse, though they had killed a small seal which they were unable to secure before it sank. Ek went out again in the evening with Koch, botan- izing. They came in soon after 8 o'clock and we had luncheon before Koch left. He is an interesting young man and shows good training and much promise in geology.
