This eve I introduced the subject to Tuk-oo-li-too & Ebierbing of the probable delay I should be obliged to make relation to my voyage to King Williams Land - telling them the bad account Capt B. gave me of the Boats.  These noble hearted Innuits seemed to feel they should never see me again.  The former wept like a beloved child.

One year ago to-day & the Innuit [[?"Oullarge"]] died & was buried in the sea.  Be the memory of that noble soul green in my heart.

At X O'clock this Morn Que-jes-se & Charley started off for Budington Ville - taking along with them "Johny Bull" who took along his wife.  "Johny Bull" goes to drive up one of the dog teams - three sledges were taken back - one being strapped upon another.  If the one upsets the other brings all "right side up with care".  I have finished the letter to Gardiner as desired by Capt. B.  He is to have Lamb & Smith with their things.  Boats crews & their traps taken up to the low land bet. Bay of Frobisher & the one from Rescue Bay & there transfered to sledges.  Capt. Budington Brot. up a wild goose that had been secured on his trip up Fr. Bay.  It has made several [[underlined]] capital [[/underlined]] meals for us.  It was cooked (Roasted & stuffed) according to rule of civilization.  It went well.  The Goose "hangs high" in my estimation tho' Capt. B. has changed his tune on this subject a little, singing:  the "Goose hangs [[underlined]] low [[/underlined]] &c"
