Iceian cJ in tl?e Fftob ican. 4i Fortunately the little patient was not very bad, and seemed “on the improve,” as J. W. said ; so a simple direction to rub it with “ torsk” (cod liver) oil was sufficient. It is a difficult thing to look like a wise consulting surgeon when one is in weather-beaten blue serge, leggings, flannel shirt, and shooting boots, with a short pipe in one’s lips. Dress has a powerful effect on the simple mind, especially in the medical and clerical professions. Godfried, the headman, interviewed us on our way to the jetty. He dealt largely in cod-fish, and stores for the Iceland smacks, and seems to be flourishing. He spoke English well, and was a very intelligent man. After we had joined the yacht, the launch was sent back for the missing pair, who for once had been sailing in the same boat. They now formed a coalition government, and came off breathing fire and smoke against us for leaving them behind. Like the crackling of thorns under a pot, it was hot while it lasted, but under the benign influence of a cocktail, and dinner, they soon cooled down. We found the conjoined basket was about 160 lbs. of fine trout, averaging over a pound, and as Salisbury had to go into decimals to find who had the heaviest share, it was voted very good equal work. After dinner we smoked on the upper deck in our slippers, and arranged our tackle. Some valve faces were being filed flat under Maister Christie’s orders in the engine-room, so we did not “ take the anchor again into the ship,” as Paul says, until midnight. Yet it was bright light as we slowly passed out of Sandevaag, so we could see the fine cliffs with their jagged outlines, quite clearly in these high latitudes. From Sandevaag we left Waag-oe on starboard, and steamed w. round
