56 October 2 & 3rd -1913. Snow and wind for a change. We are building an igloo for the expeditions that we brought up from the South. They are to occupy the shed to the left and in front of the house. Their back wall is the lower part of the front wall of Mae's room. We are gradually unpacking the hydrographic boxes, checking them up and getting the contents into shape. We have commenced to bring boxes over from the Point on temp drives. Each of us bring over four cases of condensed milk every day. Those weigh about 32 lbs. each. They make a good load down the mile of rocky trail winding up and down the hill. Saturday, October 4-1913. Wds indoors all day long charging the batteries. We ran from 4 o'clock and shut down just after midnight. I suppose that later on Allen and I will settle down to a better system for running the engine. There seems each being out some new points for improvement -
