LIEUTENANT PARR ARRIVES ON BOARD 'ALERT' DISTRESSING CONDITION OF NORTHERN DIVISION OF SLEDGES -- RELIEF PARTY START --DEATH OF GEORGE PORTER--MARKIIAM'S JOURNEY. On the evening of the 8th, Lieutenant Parr made his appearance on board the 'Alert.' As he crossed the quarter-deck, silently nodding to the one or two who chanced to meet him, his grave and weary expression was unmistakable, and in a very few moments the certainty that some sore calamity had occurred had spread throughout the ship. So travel stained was he on entering my cabin that I mistook him for his more swarthy friend Beaumont, then on the Greenland coast, and therefore anxiously questioned him concerning the disaster which had occasioned his totally unexpected return. I then received the distressing intelligence that nearly the whole of Commander Markham's men were attacked with scurvy and in want of immediate assistance. Markham and the few men who were able to work had succeeded in conveying the invalids to the neighbourhood of Cape Joseph Henry, twenty-seven miles distant from the ship, and were still advancing slowly; but each day was rapidly adding to the intensity of the disease and the number of the sick. 1876 LIEUTENANT PARE ARRIVES ON BOARD. 345 Under these circumstances Parr nobly volunteered to bring me the news and so obtain relief for his companions. Starting with only an alpenstock and a small allowance of provisions, at the end of twenty miles he arrived at a shooting tent in Dumbell Bay, where he hastily made himself a cup of tea; pushing on, he completed his long and solitary walk within twentyfour hours. Arrangements were at once made to proceed to Commander Markham's assistance, and by midnight two strong parties of officers and men had...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Narrative of a Voyage to the Polar Sea, Vol. 1 of 2: During 1875-6 in H. M. Ships 'Alert' and 'Discovery' In the following narrative I have endeavoured to give a plain and faithful account of the voyage of H.M. ships 'Alert' and 'Discovery' to and from the Polar Sea; together with the results of the explorations which were made along its shores, and over the ice in the direction of the North Pole, by means of sledging. I have written for the information of future Arctic explorers; and also under a feeling of duty to the many, both in this country and abroad, whose earnest good wishes and kind sympathies were with us during our absence. As the expectations which were entertained regarding our reaching the North Pole were not realized, I must, in justice to the gallant men whom I commanded, express my firm conviction that it was due solely to the fact that the North Pole is unattainable by the Smith Sound route.
