7 The going on the ice foot was good and we drove along on it for a quar- ter or half a mile: Then the men searched for a good place to get off it and we went down onto the sea ice, where we could take a straight er course. Tide was low and ice foot about eight feet thick. As we approached Sulkawadeli I hoped that we were going to turn in there for the night, according to Acoom's ostensible plan before starting, for I was tired enough to rest. But no, the ice and weather were good and the men wanted to push on for Neke. We stopped and had coffee and a rest. No wind. Out in Somotung Bay we met six Kahmatics, carrying Kolooturna & Elaytoo, Poadlunsh, Feddilingqua, Metik, Jophingqua and Oodlooki - They said that there was a good snow igloo at Peteranvik, hence Acoom- nisdingual said that we would stop there. Elaytoo is one of the beau- ties of the tribe and really is nice looking for an Eskimo - about 10 o'clock in the tun - lighr we arrived at Peteranvik. Enthusiastic welcome from Iniak.
