Dear ancestors, Out at the mouth of the Gulf I can see this Haven Island and am anxious to get on the march again toward cape Hurd's Hilliard where I can look out on the Polar sea toward that land which I am after. Monday, March 23, 18th day We are still being favor'd with good weather and today good travelling as well. Have made a short march as we were late in starting. We are just outside the Norwest- part of Bay Head. Got our ice bright out of the bed of a river, it looks all this bright at once on his cheek thin shirt. The wind brought in a good sized lump of very Good coal to there is Intelligence warm in this country as well as the fact that it is bright 44 below.
