Transcription Notes:
The readings are typed as calcultation which they are. Typed lines instead of [[underlined]] in calcs. Description on pages 548-50 of Hall's book. Could not find reference to Kitch-ik-tunge in Hall's book. The small island at the entrance to Lupton Channel labeled "?S G Isd" is probably Sarah's (Sarah Grinnell) Island, see page 100 of Hall's book.
