June 6, 1915 C. Indefender,
Cloudy with N mist.
About 2:00 am. Et + his two men
appeared around C. Indefenders. We fired a
gun + they turned in towards our camp. They
were all in good shape + their sledges loaded with
skins + meat at least.
Spent the day time. Filled the cup which
escaped.
June 7-16, 1915 C. Indefender & Stah.
Weather warming up rain.
Came home at such a pace that I had no
time to write anything or enjoy anything. From Ames-
croft to Etah we had the pleasure of rain. In
Russell's Bay we visited Kane's headquarters +
photographed the island where his operations took.
We were first to come over the land behind
Gunnarvik on account of water at Cinnatary
but the ice to Etah was still far beyond the
islands, I was not glad to be back.
