May 8th, 1915 Cape Englefield 2nd Day Archib, Sammie, and I again in the trail. Noo-car-ring-wah came along with us as far as Anoretah where he left us to hunt rabbits. The heavy snow fall at Etah did not reach here at all. It is even better going than when we were here before. Archib declares that Dr. Kane's winter quarters were in the north bay which is Force Bay... If he is right Dr. Kane is all wrong. Tomorrow will tell. May 9th, 1915 Made the whole circuit of Force Bay today not finding any evidence that Kane wintered there. Sammie took me to the small cairn where he found record of Bousall, one of Kane's men. It is on the forest eastern side well up.
