The canoe was shortly sent over again, under the management of Joseph Delaunay, with further supplies. Prevost immediately pressed forward to embark. Delaunay refused to admit him, telling him that there was now a sufficient supply of meat on his side of the river.
On the E., extending towards Blanchinus, is a magnificent unnamed formation, bounded on the E. by a broad lofty rampart flanking Blanchinus, Lacaille, Delaunay, and Faye; and on the W. by Playfair and the mountain arm just mentioned. It is fully 60 miles in length from N. to S. Sunrise on this region affords a fine spectacle to the observer with a large telescope.
