The
19th
,
20th
,
and
21st
of
January
were
passed
in
working
extra
hard
in
the
unshipping
of
the
cargo
and
the
dismantling
of
the
Halbrane
.
We
slung
the
lower
masts
by
means
of
yards
forming
props
.
Later
on
,
West
would
see
to
replacing
the
main
and
mizzen
masts
;
in
any
case
,
we
could
do
without
them
until
we
had
reached
the
Falklands
or
some
other
winter
port
.
Needless
to
say
,
we
had
set
up
a
camp
on
the
plateau
of
which
I
have
spoken
,
not
far
from
the
Halbrane
.
Sufficient
shelter
against
the
inclemency
of
the
weather
,
not
infrequent
at
this
time
of
the
year
,
was
to
be
found
under
tents
,
constructed
of
sails
placed
on
spars
and
fastened
down
by
pegs
.
The
glass
remained
set
fair
;
the
wind
was
nor
’
-
east
,
the
temperature
having
risen
to
46
degrees
(
2
°
78
’
C
.
)
.
Endicott
’
s
kitchen
was
fitted
up
at
the
end
of
the
plain
,
near
a
steep
projection
by
which
we
could
climb
to
the
very
top
of
the
berg
.
It
is
only
fair
to
state
that
during
these
three
days
of
hard
work
no
fault
was
to
be
found
with
Hearne
.
The
sealing
-
master
knew
he
was
being
closely
watched
,
and
he
was
well
aware
that
Captain
Len
Guy
would
not
spare
him
if
he
tried
to
get
up
insubordination
amongst
his
comrades
.
It
was
a
pity
that
his
bad
instincts
had
induced
him
to
play
such
a
part
,
for
his
strength
,
skill
,
and
cleverness
made
him
a
very
valuable
man
,
and
he
had
never
proved
more
useful
than
under
these
circumstances
.
Was
he
changed
for
the
better
?
Did
he
understand
that
general
good
feeling
was
necessary
for
the
safety
of
all
?
I
know
not
,
but
I
had
no
confidence
in
him
,
neither
had
Hurliguerly
!
I
need
not
dwell
on
the
ardour
with
which
the
half
-
breed
did
the
rough
work
,
always
first
to
begin
and
the
last
to
leave
off
,
doing
as
much
as
four
men
,
and
scarcely
sleeping
,
only
resting
during
meals
,
which
he
took
apart
from
the
others
.
He
had
hardly
spoken
to
me
at
all
since
the
schooner
had
met
with
this
terrible
accident
.
What
indeed
could
he
say
to
me
?
Did
I
not
know
as
well
as
he
that
it
would
be
necessary
to
renounce
every
hope
of
pursuing
our
intended
voyage
?
Now
and
again
I
noticed
Martin
Holt
and
the
half
-
breed
near
each
other
while
some
difficult
piece
of
work
was
in
progress
.
Our
sailing
-
master
did
not
miss
a
chance
of
getting
near
Dirk
Peters
,
who
always
tried
his
best
to
escape
from
him
,
for
reasons
well
known
to
me
.
And
whenever
I
thought
of
the
secret
of
the
fate
of
the
so
-
called
Parker
,
Martin
Holt
’
s
brother
,
which
had
been
entrusted
to
me
,
that
dreadful
scene
of
the
Grampus
filled
me
with
horror
.
I
was
certain
that
if
this
secret
were
made
known
the
half
-
breed
would
become
an
object
of
terror
.
He
would
no
longer
be
looked
upon
as
the
rescuer
of
the
sailing
-
master
;
and
the
latter
,
learning
that
his
brother
—
Luckily
,
Dirk
Peters
and
myself
were
the
only
two
acquainted
with
the
fact
.
