Next day Morton and Hans came to a region of icebergs, which had arrested a previous sledging-party of the same expedition. Their surfaces were fresh and glassy, and not like those generally met with in Baffin's Bay, less worn, and bluer, and looking in all respects like the face of the Great Glacier.
Shall I tell how, in a sledging-party, I had the happiness to drive her, and of the delightful privilege which is, on these occasions, accorded to the driver? Any reader who has spent a winter in Germany perhaps knows it. A large party of a score or more of sledges is formed.
