[[image - to the right of text. A very complex sketch of a long shoreline, land to right, water to left, running from top to bottom of page, many islands, bays and peninsulas. The author has entered text using blue ink to supplement the penciled labels. First a description of the coastal elements:
at the top of the diagram: 28[[degree symbol]]
Along the coast is 'Twer-tuk-ju-a.'
To the right of the label in blue ink are reference points 343 and 300.
The next labeled part is 'Grassy Plain' between points 300 and 270.
Next point on a promontory below the Grassy Plain is 252, then in a cove 254, another prom labeled Ti-Koon, 232, across a bay 230, then many pencil labels, ink labels and notes, reference points, etc.
From top to bottom:
Bay of Land [[?]] 227; 230; 200; note in blue ink circled 'Meaning Return to Ship Beyond Frobisher Bay'.
In an inlet there is a blue X labeled in blue ink Ex. point = 192 1/2' and "Little Bay." Points below the Little Bay in pencil: 186 and symbol for sun 188. At the very bottom of the diagram onshore in blue ink: 'X Ek-Ke-lu-Zhun.'
Information in the water side of the diagram starting at the top as follows:
The first small island is labeled in pencil 'Ni', in blue ink an asterisk has been added and beside the island in blue ink '*Ni-oun-te-lik.'  Below this island is another small island labeled in pencil 'Oo' with reference points top to bottom as follows: 186; 167; and 126.
In the bay near Ti-Kook is a small island labeled 'Kod' reference point 237 1/2. Reference point off Ti-Kook: 232
A chain of very small islands is leading down to Little Bay.]]

Transcription Notes:
Edit: 'end of page' not required if single page, replaced degree symbol with text per instructions, added text denoted by ditto marks, others I hope I have made it possible to match/locate reference points in the text to the map. "Ek-ke-lu-zhun" is sometimes written Ek-ke-le-zhun, with the latter spelling shown in Hall's book.
