For some time the voyage went otherwise well. They weathered Fakarava with one board; and the wind holding well to the southward, and blowing fresh, they passed between Ranaka and Ratiu, and ran some days north-east by east-half-east under the lee of Takume and Honden, neither of which they made. In about 14° south, and between 134° and 135° west, it fell a dead calm, with rather a heavy sea.
This fuel enabled us to make a hearty supper from a small deer killed this evening. The shallows we passed this day were covered with shoals of capelin, the angmaggoeuk of the Esquimaux. It was known to Augustus who informed us that it frequents the coast of Hudson's Bay and is delicate eating. The course and distance made was south by east-half-east, thirty-three miles.
Mike got a half-Nelson over in the east-half-east quarter-section of the buck's mouth and throwed his weight on the pliers. The Injun had pretty well wore himself out by this time, and when he felt those ice-tongs he just stiffened out an Injun's dead game that-away; he won't make a holler when you hurt him.
