SURVEY OF THE LANDING-PLACES.
41
Conclusion.
Before concluding, it is proper to state that the voyage was
one surrounded with much peril, on account of the succession
of gales and the extraordinary quantities of ice found in the
Greenland seas; never within the memory of man has there
been so much and so long a continuation of ice upon the
Greenland coasts as during the past year. In the arduous
labours of the voyage Captain Young was most ably assisted by
Mr. J. E. Davis, Master in the Royal Navy, who by the
kindness of Captain Washington, Hydrographer to the Admi-
ralty of the British Government, was permitted to accompany
the expedition and take part in the necessary surveys ; and his
former well-known services under Sir James Ross in the Ant-
arctic regions, and great experience as a marine surveyor, enabled
him to render the most valuable assistance in the especial
mission of the “ Fox,” which is acknowledged by Captain
Young in his report in the highest possible terms. During the
voyage various specimens of deep interest to the geologist and
naturalist were collected ; a large number of scientific obser-
vations were made, and a detailed meteorological journal was
kept, which, together with other valuable information and an
extensive collection of photographs made with great zeal by
Mr. Woods under very difficult circumstances, have been
furnished by Captain Young and Dr. Rae to the promoters of
the enterprise, with the hope that they will be found to con-
tribute to the cause of science, as well as to the immediate
object for which they were made. Time will not now permit
me to give further details of this most interesting voyage ; but
any members of this Society who may desire to make personal
inspection of the charts, meteorological tables, logs, reports,
and specimens, will be gladly permitted to do so.
Having thus presented to the Society some of the most
