OPINIONS OP GEEENLANBEES. 55 navigation, lie might have easily come in and gone out more than twenty times and from as many places.” Extract from a Letter dated Julianshaab, October 23rd, 1860, from Mr. L)orph, retired assistant from Nennortalik ; I. Holm, superintendent at Sardlok; M. Schonheyder, superintendent at East Proven ; and 8. G. Lund, superintendent at South Proven. “ In compliance with the request made to us, we hereby declare that the present year has been what is called in Greenland a ‘bad ice year.’ “ The large ice remained an unusually long time at the shore; Neither of us, nor any of the old Greenlanders with whom we have conversed on the subject, remember ever having seen, in the course of our lives, the ice remaining for so long a period along the coasts. “ The ice lay so thick for so long a time that the hunters were pre- vented thereby from performing their usual work, even in their Kayaks; In the present year the ice set in from the first month, and remained until September, when it disappeared. This coast is usually free from ice during the autumn months, and vessels can enter and depart withoiit interruption from ice. “One of the undersigned, Mr. Dorph, who has resided in this district during forty-one years, remembers well the year 1826, which was a remarkable ‘ bad ice year,’ but it was not such a ‘ bad ’ one as the year I860.” Extract from a Letter dated Erederwkshaab, October 12th, 1860, from T. Ordrorpe and C. Fotel, Captains of Vessels from Denmark. “ On the 19th of June (1860), at about eight miles from land off Cape Farewell, we found much ice ; on the 22nd, off Julianshaab, there was no ice. The ice was in patches, more north, and the greater part of our voyage on the coast, it was near to land. We were informed by the old people of Godthaab, that during the past thirty years there has not been any year with as much ice on the Greenland coast as the present, 1860.”
