Have arranged (78)
with Ujelsen to have made and
sent to Godhavn for the Museum
two complete outfits of man's &
woman's clothing. It is to attend
to the payment for the garments it
to relieve Jensen of any complication
with the Royal Danish Trading Co.
The cost will be 150-200 kr.
Bought some new camping uten-
sits in addition to food for men
and dogs. Six days rations for
us two from men & one feed for
dogs - Hope to get a seal or two
en route.

and press on to Igdloresuit in two march,
spending one night only at Maligiate on
the way.
