found it good, but not as much to
my taste as the baled meat.
Spent some hours on my summer
report to President Osborn. It is going
to be long for a "summary" report,
and I fear that he will not desire a
full report!
29 December. Wednesday.
Clear, cloudless, calm.
Temp. min -26°; 9a.-24°; noon -24°
Was almost finishing my report to H.F.O.
at 3 p.m. when the cry "Kamatics" came
down the forward companionway. Mac
Millan had arrived with Borenman via
the ice cap from Umnak. Mac was
a welcome arrival! He and Green had
reached Umnak at 2 p.m. Christmas,
expecting to see us all there, but they found
no one there at Pete's house except the two
small girls and the deaf and dumb boy.
Quite a disappointment to them!
