None knew better than Digges their squalid and slovenly condition, or was more anxious to effect a reformation therein. "A very wise, stout fellow he is," said the Earl, "and very careful to serve thoroughly her Majesty." Leicester relied much upon his efforts.
He now hoped that the passage to the western sea was open before him, and that the great discovery was at length achieved. He therefore sent a number of the men on shore at Cape Digges, to ascend the hills, in the hope that they would see the great ocean open to them beyond the Strait.
"I can show you when a greater man than your Lordship as high as you in place and power, and as deep in the king's favour has been hanged for as small a crime as these articles contain." But his arrogance raised a more terrible foe than Sir Dudley Digges. The "proud carriage" of the Duke provoked an attack from Eliot which marks a new era in Parliamentary speech.
She only sent Lord Delawar, Sir Ralph Sadler, Sir Thomas Bromley, and Dr. * Camden, p. 440. Strype, vol. ii. App. p. 23. Digges, p. 16, 107. Strype, vol. ii. p. 51, 52. * Digges, p. 194, 208, 209. Strype, vol. ii. p. 40, 51. Camden, p. 442. v D'Ewes, p. 207, 208, etc. v* D'Ewes, p. 219, 241.

The speakers at these conferences besides the national officers were Helen Morris Lewis of North Carolina, Annie L. Digges of Kansas, Clara Bewick Colby of Washington, D. C., Dr. Cora Smith Eaton of Minneapolis and Catharine Waugh McCulloch of Chicago. The day sessions were devoted to business and discussions, followed by addresses in the evening.
The adventure was set forth, mainly, by Sir Dudley Digges, Sir Thomas Smith, and Master John Wolstenholme who severally are commemorated in the Arctic by Smith's Sound, Cape Digges, and Cape Wolstenholme and the expedition got away from London in "the barke 'Discovery'" on April 17, 1610.
