Surprised on going up to
feed our dogs this time to
find interior of much open not
frozen. They were killed
3 days ago. This verifies
as to the warrantee of the
trick hides. But the meat
was tainted within 24 hours.
Saturday April 4th
Heavy going Friday for most of
the ways but we have
made at least 30 miles and
are tonight in camp at
Hrillberg. Near our iglos
the boys found 2 cans of
jennison and 2 cans of
condensed milk which
must have been left by
Sverdrup in 1902. They are
both in good condition
although the jennison
tastes a little stale. It is
exactly like that we had
on Pedry expedition and
must have been just us
