“
A
latitude
,
”
he
added
,
“
which
is
obtained
by
taking
the
altitude
of
the
eye
with
a
shut
fist
.
”
I
recognized
my
friend
the
boatswain
in
the
manner
of
this
warning
to
all
whom
it
might
concern
.
The
new
hands
took
the
admonition
seriously
,
and
there
was
no
occasion
to
punish
any
of
them
.
As
for
Hunt
,
while
he
observed
the
docility
of
a
true
sailor
in
all
his
duties
,
he
always
kept
himself
apart
,
speaking
to
none
,
and
even
slept
on
the
deck
,
in
a
corner
,
rather
than
occupy
a
bunk
in
the
forecastle
with
the
others
.
Captain
Len
Guy
’
s
intention
was
to
take
the
Sandwich
Isles
for
his
point
of
departure
towards
the
south
,
after
having
made
acquaintance
with
New
Georgia
,
distant
eight
hundred
miles
from
the
Falklands
.
Thus
the
schooner
would
be
in
longitude
on
the
route
of
the
Jane
.
On
the
2nd
of
November
this
course
brought
us
to
the
bearings
which
certain
navigators
have
assigned
to
the
Aurora
Islands
,
30
°
15
’
of
latitude
and
47
°
33
’
of
east
longitude
.
Well
,
then
,
notwithstanding
the
affirmations
—
which
I
regarded
with
suspicion
—
of
the
captains
of
the
Aurora
in
1762
,
of
the
Saint
Miguel
,
in
1769
,
of
the
Pearl
,
in
1779
,
of
the
Prinicus
and
the
Dolores
,
in
1790
,
of
the
Atrevida
,
in
1794
,
which
gave
the
bearings
of
the
three
islands
of
the
group
,
we
did
not
perceive
a
single
indication
of
land
in
the
whole
of
the
space
traversed
by
us
.
It
was
the
same
with
regard
to
the
alleged
islands
of
the
conceited
Glass
.
Not
a
single
little
islet
was
to
be
seen
in
the
position
he
had
indicated
,
although
the
look
-
out
was
most
carefully
kept
.
It
is
to
be
feared
that
his
Excellency
the
Governor
of
Tristan
d
’
Acunha
will
never
see
his
name
figuring
in
geographical
nomenclature
.
It
was
now
the
6th
of
November
.
Our
passage
promised
to
be
shorter
than
that
of
the
Jane
.
We
had
no
need
to
hurry
,
however
.
Our
schooner
would
arrive
before
the
gates
of
the
iceberg
wall
would
be
open
.
For
three
days
the
weather
caused
the
working
of
the
ship
to
be
unusually
laborious
,
and
the
new
crew
behaved
very
well
;
thereupon
the
boatswain
congratulated
them
.
Hurliguerly
bore
witness
that
Hunt
,
for
all
his
awkward
and
clumsy
build
,
was
in
himself
worth
three
men
.
“
A
famous
recruit
,
”
said
he
.
“
Yes
,
indeed
,
”
I
replied
,
“
and
gained
just
at
the
last
moment
.
”
