the last of the supplies there - a keg of [1/8] Molasses, 2 tins butter, case of canned peas and some small boxes of yeast cakes. Was glad to see the last of that stuff go. Returned overland from the cache as far the Big Gulch and thence on bay - a beautiful walk it was over the hills, but rather hard and fatiguing. I could make out no open leads. Petowik glacier presented a fine sight with its light blue edge and top. It seems to me that the glacier does not project into the sea more than two miles from the head land on its southern side, but Captain Pickels estimates the distance at 3 miles. Crew removed banking from southern side of vessel To-day but did not finish cutting out the mid- der. They complain of having to work on short rations - Equiwal + Erik arrived at 9:15 p.m. from Umakat
