Thurs Feb 5-14
When I got up at 1 am to go on watch
today I found a big seal on the dining
table. A surprising thing to see when get
half asleep, but it is also a good thing
because it means good fresh meat.
At two thirty p.m. Sipan, Cqingwah
and Inaahs, Posidloonah and his son
arklu, Ahpelingwah, and Ahwetingwah arrived:
"Hotel Iqloowahmel" is becoming popular.
Teddylingwah, Koolatina & Klem
and their little girl came later.
Friday Feb 6-14.
On my watch this morning (12 to
4 a m), there was an explosion in the igloo
next door. Touchingwah attempted to fill an
oil stove with gasoline and was badly
burned in the face as a result of the
explosion which followed. Doc went over
and treated him.
Ootah came this morning. He was the
only arrival today.
I ran the engine from noon to five
p.m.
Walked over to the point and dumped
a case of lubricating oil back.
