Great rejoicing, especially in '63 the Eskimo family, who got the blub- ber, entrails and forelegs with the shoulder girdle. Between Moon and 2:40 Dr. Huns and I went out for a walk, going to the edge of the old ice where the men secured the seal. Walking good most of the way and day beautiful and almost calm. Found netsha too warm to wear going out with the light breeze and took it off. Put it on again however for walking back against the light breeze. Dinner menu: roast beef, potato-and- turnip bread, butter, rice with prunes, tea. Breakfast; fried bacon and eggs, beans, bread &c. Gorgeous sunset. During our walk yesterday Dr. H. spoke of fact that Captain Pickett had invited him to stay on the ship.
