[line] Sunday Feb 23. 68 [line]
Leave Kegictowruk late and about noon reach the Redoubt. Very cold sitting on the sled, and half frozen when we arrive. Take a bath for which we are just in time. Tea with Stepanof afterwards. He is in a bad humor on account of the small number of furs bought by Cameroff and Pavloff. See Yakutz + secure three good dogs for the back trip, and may get another from Lukeen. Strike him for a parki. See Alanyan who promises to mend my spectacles + can tomorrow
[line] Monday Feb 24 [line]
Get a parkie + boots of Lukeen also a pair of deer skin breeches from Chabounin, as I nearly froze my knees sitting on the sled with only cloth breeches + drawers on. Get my glasses from Alanyan. Buy a sled of Yakutz. We shall probably leave with Pavloff Thursday morning
