Friday, April 28, 1916 38th day Two miles beyond No. 7 point. 1st 10th P.V.K. The boys have just left Mu-car-pring-wah and me to go to Cape South West. By dividing the party I am enabled to go on three days more toward the south-east. They have taken all of our impedimenta thus relieving us of quite a load. I have ordered them to hunt musk-oxen north of the cape, and, if successful, to await us there. If not, they are to go on to "Three Bear Camps", where we have plenty of meat and there remain until we arrive. I am now awaiting local news to obtain right for latitude and course and variation.
