Monday March 30th. 20 th day Blowing and drifting Today holding us in camp until about 2 o clock when my two Esquimos got away for which open, E. Took-ah-slave thinks he can see a narrow passage out of this end of sea to the Northeast. Will probably tell me more about it when he returns. It is 37 + here on the led platform so must be rather warm outside. Ee Took-ah-slave says he and Dr Cook sailed much open on this island and thinks they went through this very pass. Tuesday March 31st 21st day 3 A.M. The boys are back and yell through the reef hole in answer to my question "How many?" "Ah mes-you-oh, ewe!"
