Lagunen var -f- 4.°3.
Under Tilbageturen .sad min Ledsager, der havde
Hagelgevær med, og jeg og hvilede i Uren ved Lagunens
Bred. En Ræv kom frem af Uren, betragtede os
nysgjerrig, gik oven om rundt om os og saa udover Lagunen.
Paa mit Vink havde imidlertid min Ledsager ladet Geværet
og rakt mig det. Blandt de fra denne Excursion medbragte
Specimina var et i Uren skudt Exemplar af Canis lagopus.
Det 3die Exemplar blev skudt af Capt. Wille samme
Eftermiddag paa Stranden i Mary Muss Bugten, hvor
Matroserne havde opgjort et Baal af Rækved, der syntes at
hid-lokke Rævene.
Hr. Tornoe gik samme Eftermiddag langs den indre
Side af Lagunen. Ved dens nordostre Hjørne fandt han
I estimated at an English mile, and took the breadth of the
lagoon to be about the same. Driftwood lay scattered over the
southern (inner) strand of the lagoon. TJie temperature
of the air was 4°, that of the water in the lagoon 4.°3.
On our way back to the boat, as 1 and my
companion, who carried a fowling-piece, were resting on the
tract of debris that borders the shore of the lagoon, a fox
made its appearance among the stones, and, after regarding
us a moment with evident curiosity, passed quietly on,
within good range, in a circuit above us, and looked out
across the lagoon. I motioned my companion to load and
hand me the gun. Among the specimens collected on this
excursion was an example of Canis lagopus. Another
specimen of this animal was shot the same afternoon by Capt.
Wille on the shore of Mary Muss Bay, where the sailors
had lighted, a pile of driftwood, which seemed to attract
the foxes.
Mr. Tornoe strolled along the land-side of the lagoon,
flowing into which, at the north-eastern extremity, lie found

søndre Strand af Lagunen førte en lavtliggende Dal, kanske
det laveste Ejd paa- hele Øen, ham over til Østkysten, hvor
han steg ned ad den bratte Skraaning og vandrede lien til
a small stream (Tornøe’s rivulet). From the south side of
the lagoon, a deep-lying valley, perhaps the lowest part of
the island, took liim across to the eastern shore, whence,
descending the steep incline, he made his way to the long
