Ateengana widow and her two sons, Pingasut and Ala. 142 cotiah; and from Unumarak en route to Cape Melville Ooguish and his wife and two small children. Ooguish was one of the North Pole party so that most of have seen him all. He told me, in effect, that there were "four Eskimos Innuits and two Kablunas at the Pole." He counts Matt Henson as a Kabluna or white man. I took two photos of Ooguish and his family standing beside Erik's tupik. Walked alone over to the front of the big or Clust glacier and took four Graflex photos of it. The flat ground is getting very boggy but not un- pleasant yet to walk upon. The turf feels good to Karricked feet after walking over stones. Got the old woman to sew bearskin chin + 2 wrist-pieces on my Natska. Also bought pair of white sealskin mittens from her. Gave her 14bb flgs smoking tobacco and a pack of needles. Bought from the chief for a pound of tobacco the knife that he made last winter and sent it over to EK. About 6 P.M. Pingasut and Ala-cotiah started for Unumarak taking Nate Davis with them. He is go- ing to repair Pete's motor boat for him. Crew just ashore lumber wh. H.C.P. sold to Peter. Cleaned up hold and secured old old and spare sails from nets, brought up fore, stay sails and top sails. During the night the rest of the Eskimos depart- ed, except the old widow Ateengana and her two sons who slept in the open on the beach, wrapped in their furs. Dft. curry canned beef and rice. 17 May. Wednesday. Clear, Cloudless, light air from S.W. Temp. min. 20 1/2o; 9a. 34o; 12m. 33o Shukstupa (name-ak-?) from Sapookahave 7h. 30o arrived from Unumarak about 1 o clock last night en route to Cape Melville. He is the most promi- inent of all the natives that we have seen. H.C.P. got from him a bow-drill made from a walrus(?) rib. in exchange for a spoke shave. Auiklets were on the cliffs in myriads this morning and made a great noise with their cries and the whirring of their wings. This whirring is surprisingly loud and shuddersome.
