(2 1861 Aug. 12th Mon. starting to-morrow for [[underlined]] Head of Frobisher Bay [[/underlined]] (if it be a Bay as I feel sure it is) intending to proceede as quick & direct as possible stopping only at principle capes for observations. I intend so to manage my excellent crew of Innuits that they shall not allow any delay in getting to the extreme of my voyage by stopping for Seals or Ducks or any other game unless it be when we see Ni-noo, then I'll be in for the "sport" as well as they! I will promise them to be as long at the head of this Bay as they reasonably wish & as long returning as need be for their own interests as well as mine. I must be back the latter part of Oct., any how, as the "George Henry" will then, or about that time, leave for the States. If I can do my work here in this Bay by middle of Sept. & be back to Rescue Bay by this time (D.V.) I shall do so.
