people are from dylo-di-lan-i and bring us
news that Ah-mea-ging-wah is killed a seal.
Thanksgiving - 1913
In order to work up an appetite & to Hal
Tark and I went up to the [illegible] stone
the glacier at the head of the flood. During
disappointment the record had lasted only two
days as the box had drifted so full of snow
that the clock stopped.
It was very dark coming back but
the contrast was heightened by this when we
threw open the doors to a magnificent din-
nner under our brilliant electric lights.
We fed 37 natives after our own
dinner and later had a menambeto.
Saturday November 29, 1913.
When I got out my tripod this am. wth
the darkness the visitors had all gone. X'cllaka
and Jokshawwuh had also left for the south.
The tide gauge is working at last thi-
is very encouraging as it would be hard to
take long continued observations with our small
personnel.
