"wind and drift, wolves continued right up to the igloo door. As we approached I said to myself, "Yes, there is the igloo with a gummeau can on top of it!" It proved to be Arlie's head sticking up through the top! The boys are here and we are all happy in being together again. About midway between the two igloos we found a wind shelter and two men bear meat attached up for us, informing us that they had killed a bear, which makes us sixteen. They saw two wolves and killed two partridges. Arlie has lost another dog, a total of five furbins. Wednesday May 5. 46th day Strong wind from northeast and drift all day. In
