It is my intention to follow the land to the S. W., in quest of the wreck of a ship said by the Esquimaux to be on the beach. Three other cairns have been found between this and Cape Felix * they contain no infor * about it. WILLIAM R. HOBSON, Lieut. in charge of party.

On the way I met Swears, returning from breakfast with our mutual friend, Professor Heat Ray Lankester they had had Lee-Metford sardines and Cairns marmalade, he told me, and we sought the meteor together. Find it we did in Kensington Gardens. An enormous dimple had been made by the impact of the projectile, which lay almost buried in the earth.
